Wanting to test this on an Acorn BBC Master - is the wiring correct?
#3
All I know is there are only 5 pins on the BBC side. Would more pins need to be connected on the 25 pin side?

I understand that the following is a null modem cable http://www.cowsarenotpurple.co.uk/bbccom...cable.html but it mentions something about "Warning: The wiring that appears most obvious, namely connecting the BBC's RTS line to the PC's CTS and vice versa, is not actually the best. Despite the names, RTS and CTS do not work in the same way on the PC as they do on the BBC."

Which scares me off from trying to guess my way through to making a normal modem cable.

EDIT: Going by this page... http://central.kaserver5.org/Kasoft/Type.../Ch38.html

Is this the correct kind of cable?

EDIT 2: Seemed what I put, was actually a null modem cable again. Not correct.
