NOTE: This cable was designed to connect directly to a 25-pin IBM-PC
compatible RS-232 port. Many machines on the market today support
this configuration. Some less-common machines are listed in section
2.6. Please make certain you have properly connected the PK-232 to
your RS-232 computer or Computer Terminal then proceed to section 2.4.

IBM compatible 25-pin RS-232 serial ports should connect directly to
the supplied serial cable. Some IBM compatible machines are equipped
with a 9-pin serial port. For these machines a DB-9 to DB-25 adapter
should be obtained from a Radio Shack store or a computer dealer.
