[Techtoolslist] Fluke 9010A Install with FIDE

[David Shoemaker]

I didn't think the Fluke 9010 did flow control.  But now that I look at the
back of the unit the 25 pin connector has:

2	TD
3	RD
4	RTS
7	GND
20	DTR

So it might do some (no pin's 5 or 6 so no CTS, or DSR).

There are multiple ways to do null modem, but it looks like the one most
likely to work would be wired like this:

DB9  DB25

  1     -

  2     2

  3     3

  4     6

  5     7

  6    20

  7     5

  8     4

  9     -
