I have ordered the cable and block as linked by you and await their arrival. However I cant see discussion as to which colour cable goes where in the block. Will this all come clearer and more obvious when they arrive? |

Thanks. I was hoping for some suggestions as to arranging the pins in the little connector as I cant see pin numbers inside the remote.
Many thanks again. |

Just find pin 1 (usually marked), and the rest will follow. I don't have a 7960 to look at, but here's one possibility:
You had to know where pin 1 was to plug in your old cable, so how did you manage that before? |

Sorry for my ignorance but I wasnt sure how the small connector was numbered.
Thanks

Still need some further help guys as I am unable to confirm my wiring is correct in realterm.
I have tried the wiring as per nejpski and per Revwillie as in my picture
1 2yellow
3black 4green
6white
I have followed the realterm instructions carefully and am able to switch the remote in and out of normal operation, however am getting no further response in the test.
Regards |

I've never used realterm, sorry. Were you able to find pin 1 on your remote? If that's correct, then your connector looks right to me. |

Is this the cable you bought? Then, Code: | Black:GND
Red:5V
Green:TXD
White:RXD
Yellow:RTS |
The attachment to the cable should be: Code: | 1 - (empty)
2 - RTS-- Yellow
3 - ground -- Black
4 - Rx -- White
5 - (empty)
6 - Tx --Green |
So I suspect your green and white wires are reversed. Please be careful to attach no wire to pin 5. |

I'm sorry nejpski, but I found that a little confusing (I'm old, but talk to me like I'm five...)
The JP1.3 pinout by color is:
[1] Empty
[2] Yellow (Yellow)
[3] Black(Black)
[4] Green(Green)
[5] Empty
[6] White(White)

Everyone of these wiring suggestions are different. I have tried them all and I still havent resolved this so firstly I need to know which one is correct for my cable so I am working from a correct start.
I there anyone who can offer suggestions as to what is wrong when I do have the correct cable.
Would help if there was someone nearby I could get help with. I did message a member from Salford which isnt far from me but I got no response back plus he has removed the location from his sig.

I have your cable and successfully used the last pinout (2-Yellow, 3-Black, 4-Green, 6-White). My numbering of your pins was an educated guess. You'll still have to confirm the correct pin numbers. Can you post a picture of the pins on your remote?
Do you have any JP1.3 remotes you can test your cable with? |

Here is the pins. This is my first JP1.3, I have a JP1 USB flash cable for 2 older remotes. |

I think pin 1 is on the bottom right. So you wiring looks correct to me.
6 5
4 3
2 1 |
