Serial cable for URC-9910?

bobdobolina · Post by **bobdobolina** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 1:16 pm

I've bought a URC-9910, which apparently (I'm new to this) is an original JP1 interface, not 1.1 or 1.2.

Is there anyplace that sells a JP1 serial cable? The only ones I've seen that are serial are the 1.x version.. my choices either seem to be parallel or USB.

thanks

I think if you want a pre-made cable, then Parallel or USB is what you'll find readily available.

You can make your own Serial Cable: Serial Interface Instructions if you have (or are willing to learn) basic soldering skills.

Making your own cable is actually quite satisfying.

Don't thank me - I certainly didn't write it...
