- Hi folks, I don't have the tools or skill to make this myself.
- Neither does Altex Electronics. They tried, according to the man zs
- page pinout scheme which I paste below... but failed.

- NeXT 68030 to NeXT 68040 Cable (Null-modem cable)
- NeXT 68040 to Some RS-422 Devices (Null-modem cable)

- Mini-Din Mini-Din
- 68030 68040
- 1 (DTR) 2 (DCD)
- 2 (DCD) 1 (DTR)
- 3 (TXD-) 5 (RXD)
- 4 (GND) 4 (GND)
- 5 (RXD-) 3 (TXD)
- 8 (RXD+) 4 (GND)
- 4 (GND) 8 (CTS)
-
- NOTE: This cable is symmetric and either end may be plugged
- into either system; the 68030 and 68040 labels simply iden-
- tify the signal name conventions used for the particular
- column. Also note: when interconnecting 68030 and 68040
- systems, the 68040 flow control device names should not be
- used since 68030 systems do not support flow control. This
- cable will allow some RS-422 devices to be used with 68040
- systems; however, not all RS-422 devices will function
- correctly.
-
- Is this the right pinout scheme? My system is a NeXtstation Mono Turbo.
-
- If anyone wants to put one of these together for me and make a few
- dollars in the bargain, let me know.
