Hello, This cable works with Spectra IV all the time. i am unable to operate Spectra III with this cable. I am not sure if it is due to some termination issue?? Any Idea??

Thank You. The IPS-cable did work. I used piece of serial cable with female end. pin 2 - Brown Pin 3 - red Pin 5 - Yellow. I used piece of CAT cable 568B with RJ45 male end Pin 6 - solid green Pin 8 - solid brown Pin 2 - Solid Orange. This is the way I wired and it worked fine. Serial Female RJ45 Male pin 2 Brown Pin 8 brown Pin 3 Red Pin 6 green Pin 5 Yellow Pin 2 Orange Thank You for your help........I hope this works for other people. have a Blessed day.

good news, I found a cable with female end for DB9. I will make sure connections are as you described. I am not IT savvy. How do I terminate CAT cable?? how do I know if cable is terminated or not. I know a IT guy, who made me this piece of cable. He crimped 8 wires in RJ45. and other end is free.

Thanks a bunch. I will try and let you know. let me tell you what I have. 1, I do have NULL serial cable. 2, I do have DB9 male connector. 3, I do have RJ-45 with loose cable at the other end. 4, Laptop with db9 serial port, NO USB conversion. if you can, Please let me know how I need to wire between RJ-45 male and DB9 male. I will use NULL cable from PC to DB9 male. Thank You so much.

Thank You. I will wait for reply till Monday. Appreciated.
