| A. Terminal jumpering: (see Jumpered-Terminal.JPG) For connection to an alpha terminal using a NULL MODEM CABLE, the board would be jumpered as shown, as indicated on the silkscreen. The cable does the crossing of signals to make the 25-pin connector look like a modem. Hence, this connector may be plugged into a terminal. | A.

| B. Modem jumpering: (see Jumpered-Modem.JPG) For connection to terminal with a DB-9 connector, this is the simplest cable to constuct. The 10-pin female IDC connector which plugs into the board is crimped to the 10-conductor flat cable, and wires 1-9 are crimped into the female DB-9 socket. Wire 10 is not connected. The board is jumpered to look like a modem, per the photo and the silkscreen. The DB-9 connector is Female, indicating it is a MODEM connection. Any terminal may plug into this “modem.” | B.
