- I've had problems in running terminal emulation to NeXT black
- hardware. (Read this as "I'm having general serial problems
- connecting to next hardware") I suspect that the problem is that the
- NeXT is driving the line at RS422 voltages (-5 to 5 volts) whereas the
- newton expects standard RS232 (-12 to 12 volts).
-
- Given these problems, and my assumptions being correct, I would expect
- folks to have problems running the Newton Connection kit with NeXT
- black hardware.
-
- Anyone have evidence to the contrary?
