ya

  • 9600 baud (signal changes per second)
  • 8 data bits per packet (as opposed to 7)
  • no parity bit (no error check)
  • 1 stop bit per packet (packet ends here)

In my line of work I still do that. Not for modems, though. Usually for receiving serial data from gyros and gps.

In my line of work I still do that.

Same.

Using a nice blue cable that says "Cisco" on the connector.

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

I have something similar. DE9-RJ45 for talking to switches.

Hello fellow Cisco blue cable user.

Mine appear to multiply every time I use them. I think I have more than 10 at this point. My RS232 is happily married to one of them.... At least, I think they're happy.

For me it's displays and audio systems, but I do use RS232 on a daily basis.

Yesterday I had to manually make a null modem cable cause I lost my final little orange dongle.

I carry a bunch of loose connectors in my Pelicase O'Spares - I mostly work with RS422, so I can solder any length I need to achieve less rack spaghetti.

My pelicase has a redicilous assortment of various things I might need, accumulated over a long period of time. Netqork cards, SFP transceivers, and a bunch of other stuff. There's also a Cisco router and three beers. The last two items are normally not there, but they were leftovers after wrapping up my work trip yesterday, so I took them with me.

If internal, don't forget whether to use 3F8, 2F8, 3E8, or 2E8 and an unused IRQ. Any questions? Hit me up on ICQ
