Connect to RB450 serial port

Sun Dec 11, 2011 8:43 pm

My PC have no COM port. I would like connect to the RB450 serial port..I can:
-Get a serial card or USB to RS232
-From there do I use Null modem cross wired cable or Straight through??

or can I get the 2 x adapter DB9F to RJ45F and connect them with RJ45 patch cable?

Please advise.
Thanks!

Got your first option (linked to the system at the moment actually).

Just make sure you configure the serial port correctly:
port             /dev/ttyUSB0
baudrate         115200
bits             8
parity           N
stopbits         1
rtscts           No 
At least, that is under linux using minicom.
