Batlabs MTR-2000 Cable Schematic/Pinout
Posted: Thu Apr 07, 2011 10:47 am
Just for FYI,
I built a cable using the posted schematic. The cable could not read the station. The DB-9 side is correct (Pins 2,3 and 5). It would appear that the (RJ-45] pin-out side (2,3,4) is incorrect. I found another diagram which shows the RJ-45 side as pins (5,6,7). So, DB-9 (2) to RJ (6), DB-9 (3) to RJ (7) and DB (5) to RJ (5). I changed the connections to these pins and now the station reads fine. Hopefully, this can be corrected on the page.
