For those of you who have a Psion Revo and want to use it on packet here
is the pin outs.


Below is the pin outs for  making a null modem adapter for the Psion Revo
to connect up a packet radio tnc. This *works fine* for  me with a Tiny 2
and a copy of PocPag by G0HZK.I believe the same adapter will allow a GPS
or phone modem to  be connected direct  to the Revo docking station but I
have not tried it.


I built my adapter (applicable to the UK) with parts from Maplin
Electronics. They can for 99 pence supply a D-TYPE box that houses the
two d-types and the actual d-type connectors are approx œ1 UKP. Cheap.

      PIN(1)------------------------------------------(PIN7 & 8)

      PIN(3)------------------------------------------(PIN 2   )
      PIN(4)------------------------------------------(PIN 6   )
      PIN(5)------------------------------------------(PIN 5   )
      PIN(6)------------------------------------------(PIN 4   )
      PIN(7 & 8)--------------------------------------(PIN 1   )
