hello there,

i have a rs232 module online with the galaxy 60 ok but i just cannot get the galaxy gold to connect to the module via d9 com port (rear of laptop)to the d25 port (rs232 mod) using a rs232 cable purchase from well know electronic shop.

i have set the baud rate to 1200,stop bits=1,data bits=8,parity=even,transmission=rs232 on the module and the laptop com port 1 set at same setting as above.

i have been tweaking various connection/setting to no joy,have i miss any others option???

the galaxy gold keep coming up 'cannot communicate with remote module'

can anyone shed a light in this matter??

You sure you got the right cable??

Check continuity between the the relevant pins between both D types

Can't comment specifically for the above but it is usually:

9W - 25W

P2 (Tx) - P2

P3 (Rx) - P3

P5 (0v) - P7

i would add there are 2 types of lead

1) serial (direct pin to pin like an extension lead)

2) null modem (reverses ie P2 - P3 and P3 - P2) as used with er! modems

you will need the right one for it to work
