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.
[9PIN D-TYPE MALE] [9PIN D-TYPE FEMALE]
PIN(1)------------------------------------------(PIN7 & 8)
PIN(2)------------------------------------------(PIN 3 )
PIN(3)------------------------------------------(PIN 2 )
PIN(4)------------------------------------------(PIN 6 )
PIN(5)------------------------------------------(PIN 5 )
PIN(6)------------------------------------------(PIN 4 )
PIN(7 & 8)--------------------------------------(PIN 1 )
