Straight Serial Cable vs. Not Null Modem

[Darkatek]

You do not want a null modem cable. You do want a standard serial cable.

Hi photojojo, i googled standard serial cable and had a look at the images and there´s all kinds of standard serial cables.

I´m about to order the firmware kit but wanted to make sure i can buy the right cable without ordering it from DJTT cause t would be a lot more expensive.

On my PC motherboard i have a female printer socket of 25 pins which i bellieve is a com port. Can i use this port?

If i can use this port can you send me a Amazon link or any other link of the cable i need that will work with the upgrade kit?

Would be very appreciated as i´m a bit confused with so many serial cables available.

I also have a 15 female pin port on my motherboard which i believe is to plug in a monitor. Does this work too?

Thank´s in advance. http://www.djtechtools.com/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif

You need a 9 pin serial port. I don't think it will work with either of those other ports, but I'm not 100% sure about that. I used a Dynex UBDB9 USB to serial cable when I did mine. No guarantees if it'll work for you.
