Connecting the DI-194RS to Your Computer

The DI-194RS can be connected directly to your PC's serial (or COM) port, no cable is required. If you would like

more accessibility and/or convenience than what the direct-connection provides, you can use any standard 9-pin

serial cable (included). Just connect the male end of the serial cable to the DI-194RS and connect the other end of the

cable to your computer's serial port. DO NOT CONNECT INPUT SIGNALS TO YOUR DEVICE UNTIL YOU

HAVE READ "CAUTION" on page v.
