Welcome Thank you for purchasing the 6416m Mic Input Module, RCI Remote Control Interface, and MCS Mic Control Surface. All Pro64 products are powered by A-Net®, Aviom’s proprietary data transmission protocol designed especially for the unique demands of live streaming audio. In developing the Pro64 Series, we have made every effort to make the user interface as easy to use and understand as possible. This User Guide is designed to familiarize you with the features and functions of your new Pro64® products.
RCI Remote Control Interface Features: • Any number of RCI modules can be installed in a Pro64 network • Four Control Groups • Headphone monitor with level control • Rear-panel XLR line-level output for monitoring selected mic preamp channel • Pad switch for XLR line-level output • Backup DC power connector MCS Mic Control Surface Features: • Full real-time control of the selected channel’s gain, phase, mute, pad, +48V phantom power, and low cut filter • Real-time metering of 64-channel network stream • Int
AC Power Always plug the unit into a properly grounded (earthed) outlet. Always use the AC line cord that was shipped with the unit. Grasp the power cable by the connector and never by the cord itself when connecting and disconnecting it from the power source. Do not expose the Pro64 device to moisture, rain, or excessively damp environments. AC Line Conditioning Aviom products are digital devices and as such are sensitive to sudden spikes and drops in the AC line voltage.
Transporting the 6416m in a Rack The 6416m Mic Input Module has attachment points for rear support hardware built into the product’s sides. If the 6416m is to be rack mounted and transported frequently, be sure to support the rear of the unit with appropriate mounting hardware that matches the size of the rack used to avoid damage to the product. Ventilation The 6416m is convection cooled and does not require a built-in fan. Always allow adequate ventilation for devices mounted in equipment racks.
About A-Net Aviom’s A-Net® is the only networking technology conceived, designed, and optimized for managing and distributing audio using ordinary Cat-5e cables (or fiber by adding the MH10f Merger Hub). As implemented in the Pro64® Series products, A-Net can transmit up to 128 channels of uncompressed 24-bit audio with the reliability and fidelity of analog, and the power and flexibility of a true digital network. Pro64 A-Net allows variable sample rates in three ranges, from 44.
rates, from 44.1/48kHz± to 192kHz±. Because no sample rate converters are used, audio transmission is kept fast and clean, eliminating the audio artifacts and signal degradation inherent to sample rate conversion—even when syncing to an external clock source. Any Pro64 I/O module can be designated the Clock Master for the network, generating and distributing its internal clock. Digital I/O modules are capable of syncing to and distributing an external clock from a Word Clock or AES3 source to the network.
Support For Pro16 Series Products Pro64 Series products can be combined with Pro16™ Series output products such as the Pro16 Monitor Mixing System by adding the Pro64 ASI A-Net Systems Interface. This 1U module converts Pro64 data to Pro16 data, providing up to four streams of 16-channel data (depending on the Pro64 sample rate) that can be used with A-16II and A-16R Personal Mixers, A-Net Distributors, and AN-16/o Output Modules.
Firmware Notice All Pro64 devices in a network should be updated to use the most recent firmware version to ensure trouble-free operation. As new Pro64 modules are released, older Pro64 products need to be updated so that they recognize the features and functions of the newer modules—something that is especially important if one of the older devices will be used as the network’s Control Master.
Pro64 Interface Conventions Many Pro64 Series products have similar user interface components, including buttons, LEDs, and switches. When describing the features and functions of Pro64 Series products, the following conventions will be used. Cat-5e All Cat-5e connections between A-Net devices should use Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable.
The buttons with up/down indicator arrows are used for the inc/dec functions. Buttons of this type will be referred to as “inc/dec” buttons. Selecting Values Some settings, including Sample Rate, Network Mode (Auto or Manual), and Virtual Data Cable type, require the user to select from a range of values. The button that controls the selection of a value is referred to generically as the “selection button” for that function.
Pro64 User Interface This section outlines some basic concepts of operation for Pro64 products. Pro64 I/O devices have some common user interface elements that make setting up an audio network easy to understand.

analog or digital—on a piece of hardware (such as the 16 mic/line XLR input jacks on the 6416m Mic Input Module). Each of these audio inputs can be made active and added to the network individually, and it is only when activated that they use any network resources (the A-Net Slots). To enable this powerful feature, Pro64 products separate the hardware resources from the available network resources with a button that allows each hardware input channel it to be added to the network as needed.
range will result in an error message (the selected channel button, A-Net Slot range, and sample rate LEDs will all flash). A-Net Slot Display Since the capacity of the Pro64 network could be as high as 64 A-Net Slots, Pro64 hardware I/O devices need a way of routing a selected hardware channel to a selected network Slot.
The numbers seen to the right of each gray base Slot number correspond to the channel buttons on the front panel of the interface.
A-Net Slot Example The following example shows the power of the Pro64 network and the A-Net Slots concept. The range of A-Net Slots used in the example has been limited to the group from 1 to 16 for simplicity. This graphic represents a Pro64 product set to a base Slot range of 1. Slot Channel 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 One 16-channel input module is placed in each of four rooms of a production facility, designated as Locations A, B, C, and D.
By activating a group of channels on each of the four input modules, a total of sixteen inputs are used (indicated by reverse text). All of these inputs are available on the network at every Pro64 output module. The operator in Location E can use the sixteen inputs from Locations A, B, C, and D simultaneously. The order in which the Pro64 devices are connected is irrelevant.
Network Modes A Pro64 audio network can be set to operate in one of two modes, Auto or Manual. The network mode can be selected on the front panel of the device designated as the system’s Control Master. Both modes are fully bidirectional at all times, regardless of the system layout or design. Auto Mode Pro64’s Auto Mode takes most of the work out of managing resources in an audio network. This is the “everything everywhere” mode.
channels in the system. The number of available Slots in Manual Mode is dependent upon the current sample rate. Sample Rate 44.1/48kHz 88.2/96kHz 176.
Pro64 Network Concepts Configuring a Pro64 network involves a few simple steps. This section details some of the global settings and network concepts that you should be familiar with when setting up a Pro64 system. Control Master In every Pro64 network, one device will always be designated as the Control Master, the device that manages all A-Net resources for the network. The Control Master can be any I/O module in the network, and can be assigned or changed by the user as needed.

6416m Network Settings There are a few basic concepts that need to be understood when setting up a Pro64 network. Some of the functions described below do not need to be set on every Pro64 device in the network as they only need to be set up on the network’s Control Master, the module in charge of network resource management. Control Master One Pro64 module in every network must be designated as the Control Master.
A-Net Slot Range Configuration The A-Net Slot section of the interface is used to set the range of A-Net Slots that the 6416m will use to send its active audio channels into the network. There are two components: the A-Net Slot display and the inc/dec buttons used to select a value. A-NET SLOT CLOCK MASTER Sample Rate Link Link A-NET TRANSMIT Press the up/down buttons to select an A-Net Slot range.
Network Mode The LEDs in the A-Net Transmit section show information about the current network mode, which can be set to Auto Mode or Manual Mode only at the network’s Control Master. When the Pro64 network is operating in Auto Mode, the red Auto LED will be lit on all modules, and no user settings are available on a per-module basis. When using Auto Mode, it does not matter which rear-panel A-Net port (A or B) is used when connecting I/O devices to the network.

6416m Front Panel Features This section describes the features and functions of all front-panel components of the 6416m Mic Input Module. Many of the network-wide settings are common to other Pro64 modules and will be familiar to users of other Pro64 devices. A-Net Slot Configuration Each I/O module in a Pro64 network can be set to operate within a specific part of the network, referred to as its Slot range.
Clock Master Every Pro64 network will have one Clock Master. The module designated as Control Master will have its yellow Clock Master LED, found above the sample rate section, lit. In a network that uses all analog modules, setting the 6416m to be the network Control Master automatically assigns it to be the Clock Master. See page 33 for more info.
VDC Slot and Port Configuration There are 14 Virtual Data Cable Slots available to transport user control data throughout the Pro64 network without impacting audio performance. See page 94 for additional VDC setup information.
Managed Button The Managed button is used to put the network under control of a computer for firmware updates, system monitoring, etc. Managed Mode can only be engaged from the network’s Control Master. When using a PC for firmware updates, etc., a Pro64 module cannot have its RS-232/422 or MIDI port assigned to a VDC when the PC is connected. Deactivate these VDC assignments before entering Managed Mode. Connecting a PC to the Control Master requires the use of the RS-232 port for communication.

T 6416m Channel Strip Functions The features of the 6416m mic preamp channels are described in detail in this section. Most of these features can also be remote controlled by adding the optional RCI Remote Control Interface and MCS Mic Control Surface. All operations described below apply to the currently selected mic pre channel.
Channel Activation Rules It is not necessary to press the E nter button to activate or deactivate a channel. Each Pro64 module remembers a unique set of active channels for Auto and Manual Modes. For example, an input module could have channels 1-8 active for an Auto Mode application and channels 5-6 and 12-16 active for a Manual Mode application. Changing network modes will restore the active channel status for each connected module.
To link a pair of channels, both channels must be active on the network first; the Active button located below the Edit button must be lit on both channels. Once the two channels are active, pressing the Link button will link the two channels immediately; no confirmation is required. Attempting to link channels that do not meet the requirements above will cause the Link button and one or more channel button LEDs to flash to indicate the error.
Edit Button The Edit button gives the user access to each channel’s settings for Phase, Low Cut filter, Pad, +48V phantom power, and Gain. Only one channel can be edited at a time, even if a channel is part of a stereo pair. To change the settings for a particular channel, press the E dit button found above the channel’s Active button and then use the Phase, Low Cut filter, Pad, and +48V phantom power buttons or the Gain knob as needed.
Low Cut Button The Low Cut button applies a bass rolloff filter centered at 85Hz to the selected channel. Use this to eliminate low frequency interference such as microphone handling noise, rumble, etc. Press the Low Cut button once; the yellow LED in the selected channel strip will light to indicate that the function is enabled. Press Low Cut again to turn the filter off. It is not necessary to press Enter. The Low Cut filter can be controlled from a Yamaha device using m-control.
Mute Cancel to exit without turning the Pad off. When the 24dB pad is in use, the Pad LED in the selected channel strip will be lit. When using m-control to control the 6416m from a Yamaha device, the 6416m Pad will turn on/off automatically in response to gain change messages from the Yamaha device. Mic pre Presets save the Pad state for each channel. +48V Phantom Power Button Phantom power for devices such as condenser mics is available for each mic preamp channel.
When phantom power is enabled, the selected channel strip’s +48V LED will be lit. The on/off state of the +48V phantom power is saved for every channel in each mic pre Preset. Phantom power on/off can also be controlled from a Yamaha device when using m-control. Channel Gain Each input channel on the 6416m has an individual gain setting controlled by the Gain knob. Press E dit to select a channel for editing and then rotate the Gain knob to the desired setting.

Only active mic channels in the currently selected Control Group can be edited with an MCS connected to an RCI.
Mic Preamp Presets Each 6416m Mic Input Module has the ability to save 16 mic preamp Presets. Parameters that can be saved per channel include: • • • • • • Channel Mute status, on/off Phase on/off Low Cut Filter on/off Pad on/off +48V Phantom Power on/off Channel gain Note that each channel’s network activation status cannot be saved within a mic preamp Preset. The network Control Master manages active channels.
P Note: To save a mic preamp Preset from the MCS, remember that the 6416m needs to be set to the same Control Group as is currently selected on the RCI that the MCS is connected to. Recall a Preset To recall a mic preamp Preset from the front panel of the 6416m, press the Recall button. The Recall button’s red LED, the Enter/Cancel LED, and the Edit button corresponding to the last Preset saved/recalled will flash.
6416m Rear Panel Features All 6416m rear-panel features and functions are described in this section. AC Power Pro64 modules use switching power supplies that can operate at 100-240V and from 50-60Hz, meaning that they can be used with most of the world’s AC power systems by simply changing the line cord. The 6416m is equipped with a standard grounded IEC power inlet (with fuse), which can accept the interchangeable IEC power cord.
for a very brief period of time at power up. This is called in-rush current. This also happens when powering the unit through its DC Backup power input. A power supply connected to this input should be capable of sourcing 5A of in-rush current for 5ms (0.1ms rise time). Alternately, some power supply manufacturers indicate in-rush current sourcing capability by specifying a maximum capacitive load. In the 6416m’s case, a supply should be chosen that can handle a 2500μf load.
DB25 Audio Thru/Alternate In Two female DB25 multipin connectors are provided for audio throughput on the 6416m, creating a passive split of the source signals. Channels 1-8 appear on one DB25 jack and channels 9-16 on the other. The DB25s are wired to the industry accepted Tascam® compatible analog wiring standard. Do not use DB25 cables wired for AES3 digital connections.

The DB25 panel-mount connectors have #4-40 UNC thread. P Note: Strain relief is suggested when using DB25 cable assemblies.
Virtual Data Cables Three types of Virtual Data Cable (VDC) ports are available on the rear panel of the 6416m Input Module. Fourteen VDC Slots are available system-wide, regardless of the current network mode (Auto or Manual). Virtual Data Cables are not affected by the network sample rate, channel activation settings, or gain settings. When a module requests to activate a Virtual Data Cable, the Control Master checks the entire network to ensure that the requested VDC is available.
VDC Slot 14 on the 6416m is set to input GPIO data from the rear-panel jack to the network. A remote Pro64 device is set to output GPIO data. To output control data that originates at the 6416m from another Pro64 module elsewhere in the network, select the same numbered VDC Slot on the remote Pro64 device that contains the data from the 6416m. Set the remote device’s VDC type by pressing the selection button to highlight the data type and light its LED. Press E nter to complete the VDC assignment.
With the switch in the down position, the input is set to TTL. Use this setting for voltage-type signals. GPIO inputs set for TTL operation can handle signal voltages up to 5 Volts. 11 The up position (Isolated) sets the input to accept on/off switch signals. Do not use the Isolated setting with voltage-based signals. See the GPIO Specifications later in this document for additional configuration 10 9 8 7 6 5 information. 4 GPIO Terminal Blocks THRU (ALT.

RCI Front Panel Features The RCI provides a network access point for remote control of the 6416m. Any number of RCI Remote Control Interfaces can be installed anywhere in a Pro64 network, providing multiple control access and monitor points. The Control Group function on the 6416m and RCI allows control of active mic channels to be divided among up to four different simultaneous users and control points.
A-NET SLOT CONTROL HEADPHONES Group Sync Port A Group 3 Port B Auto and Manual Mode LEDs and Port selection options on the RCI A-Net Slot The A-Net Slot display shows the network Slot that is currently available to be monitored by the headphone and rear-panel XLR outputs. Any active network Slot can be monitored, even if its content is not coming from a microphone input module.
Sync Indicator The dot in the Slot Selection display is used to indicate that Slot selection is being controlled from the MCS Mic Control Surface. Slot selection will remain in sync until the user selects a Slot directly from the RCI front panel. To activate the sync function and allow Slot selection to be controlled from the MCS Mic Control Surface, use the inc/dec buttons on the RCI to scroll until “--.” (double dash with a dot) is shown in the display.
device designated as Control Master. Once a module is enumerated and is part of the Pro64 network, the blue A-Net LED will light solid. The LED will remain lit as long as valid A-Net network data is received. The A-Net LED will flash during a firmware update when the module being updated is part of an active network. When a module is being bench configured (it is not part of an active network), the A-Net LED will be off during the firmware update. (Check the Aviom website for current firmware updates.
RCI Rear Panel Features All RCI rear-panel features and functions are described in this section. AC Power Pro64 modules use switching power supplies that can operate at 100-240V and from 50-60Hz, meaning that they can be used with most of the world’s AC power systems by simply changing the line cord. The RCI is equipped with a standard grounded IEC power inlet (with fuse), which can accept the interchangeable IEC power cord.
Balanced Line-Level Monitor Output The RCI outputs the currently selected Slot as a +4dBu line-level audio signal that can be connected to a mixing console or any other device capable of taking in a line-level audio signal. +4dBu LINE�LEVEL OUTPUT �BAL� RCI B A PAD ntrol Interface PIN 2 HOT The RCI outputs the currently selected Slot as a +4dBu mono line-level audio signal. The output of this jack is a fixed level and is not affected by the front-panel headphone monitor output level control.
NE�LEVEL OUTPUT �BAL� B A PIN 2 HOT Two A-Net ports are provided, labeled A and B. When configuring a system, connect a Cat-5 cable to either the A or B port when using Auto Mode. In Manual Mode the user must set the front panel Receive Port settings to reflect where the cables are connected on the rear panel in order to get the desired result. Do not plug the MCS Mic Control Surface into the rear panel A-Net ports of the RCI Remote Control Interface.

MCS Features The MCS is used to edit 6416m mic preamp settings and save/recall presets remotely. A single MCS connected to an RCI can be used to control up to 64 channels of 6416m input channels, regardless of their location in the Pro64 network. Multiple control points can be provided by installing more than one RCI Remote Control Interface in a Pro64 network. All changes made from the MCS are immediately reflected on the front panel of all 6416m modules in the same Control Group.
No Control The numeric keypad with inc/dec buttons A-Net Slot Display The two-digit A-Net Slot display shows the currently selected active network Slot. Remember that any Slot can be selected for level monitoring, but only mic preamp channels in the same Control Group can be edited from the MCS. When selecting a new Slot, this display will show Slot numbers as they are entered from the keypad; only the last two digits entered are used according to the numeric keypad rules described above.
Only Slot numbers from 1-64 (at 44.1/48kHz), 1-32 (at 88.2/96kHz), or 1-16 (at 176.4/192kHz) are valid. Entering any invalid number (for example, an out-ofrange Slot) will return the display to the last legal Slot number displayed. No Control Indicator The No Control indicator dot in the lower right corner of the A-Net Slot display will light to indicate that the currently selected Slot cannot be edited.
Modules will save or recall the same numbered Preset simultaneously. 6416m Mic Input Modules set to different Control Groups will ignore Save/ Recall requests from any RCI/MCS set to a different Control Group number. See page 54 for additional information on the use of Presets and the interaction of the Control Group settings. Cancel and Enter Buttons Some mic pre editing operations, such as using the pad or phantom power features, require the use of the Enter button to confirm an action.
No Control The current gain setting is displayed for any active mic preamp channel when its Slot is selected. Gain Control The rotary gain control sets the amount of gain applied to the currently selected mic preamp channel and can be changed in 1dB increments. The gain display will flash until the 6416m has processed the command sent from the MCS. Gain settings for each channel of the 6461m are saved within a mic preamp Preset.
No Control The channel strip, high resolution meter, and gain settings Low Cut Button The Low Cut button applies a bass rolloff filter centered at 85Hz to the selected channel. Use this to eliminate low frequency interference such as microphone handling noise, rumble, etc. Press the Low Cut button once; its yellow LED will light to indicate that the function is enabled for the selected channel. Press Low Cut again to turn the filter off. It is not necessary to press the Enter button.
+48V Phantom Power Button Phantom power for devices such as condenser mics is available for each 6416m mic preamp channel. The use of Enter/Cancel is required to confirm a change when using +48V phantom power. To turn phantom power on, press the +48V button once. The Enter and Cancel LEDs will blink. Press E nter; the phantom power is on. Press the Cancel button to exit without turning phantom power on. To turn a channel’s phantom power off when it is enabled, press the +48V button.
No Control The high resolution meter and Peak Hold button Peak Hold Button When on, the Peak Hold function will show and hold the highest level (including any clips) that has occurred on the high-res meter as well as any clips that may have occurred on active Slots (displayed using the 64 bicolor LEDs). To use the Peak Hold function, press the Peak Hold button once; its LED will light. Press the Peak Hold button again to clear the last displayed peaks and turn the hold function off.
Building a Pro64 Network Configuring a Pro64 network involves connecting input and output modules with Cat-5e cables, setting A-Net Slot ranges, and activating input channels. Any number of 6416m Mic Input Modules and RCI remote Control Interfaces can be connected and located anywhere in a Pro64 network.
The diagrams that follow use generic input and output module icons. Any Pro64 I/O device can be substituted unless otherwise noted. Connect the RCI Input at any convenient location in the diagrams thatBfollow to provide a monitor A station and remote control of 6416m mic preamp parameters.

front of house. Unlike Auto Mode, however, this input module needs to be set to send audio data to its A-Net Port B in order to make the digital split work. The example assumes that all modules are set to the same A-Net Slot range. By setting the FOH input module to transmit its A-Net data to Port A and B, the A-Net data flows in two directions: to the output module on stage and to the output module in the recording area. Both output modules are set to receive A-Net data via Port A.

Pad VDC Configuration Pro64’s Virtual Data Cables provide an easy way to distribute control signals throughout a network, greatly expanding the possibilities for using and distributing MIDI, GPIO, and RS-232/422 control signals. (Not all Pro64 modules have the same VDC complement.) A-Net provides the ability to send these control data over greater distances than previously possible with traditional analog connections.

Pressing the inc/dec buttons will cause the display to scroll up or down, and +48V at the end of the numeric list.
Assigning a VDC Slot The act of assigning a VDC Slot maps one of the rear-panel hardware VDC I/O ports to a Virtual Data Cable. To assign a VDC port to a VDC Slot, two actions are required. First an available VDC Slot must be selected, and second, one of the VDC data types from the Assign Port list must be assigned to that VDC Slot. To select a VDC Slot to activate, scroll through the list to a numbered location that does not have the In Use LED lit.

A special forward sweeping LED sequence is displayed in the channel meters to confirm that the network is being locked. Press Cancel to exit without locking the network.
Sample Alignment All digital networks that allow daisy-chained connectivity need to compensate for sub-millisecond latency build-up between devices when data is retransmitted. In the majority of cases, there is no audible effect (as the individual delays are very small), but without compensation, these small variations in latency can become an issue in certain applications as the network grows in size.

Press E nter; the A-Net Slot display is used to indicate the current value in use. channel • The A-Net Slot display reads “0” to indicate that the system’s default values are being used. (This is set with Function 14.) • The A-Net Slot display reads “1” to indicate that stored values are being used. (This is set with Function 13.) Measure New Sample Alignment Value To generate a new sample alignment value, use Function 12.
Use Default Sample Alignment Value The system calculates a sample alignment value to be used as the default every time the network is powered up, or when the sample rate is changed. Function 14 can be used at the Control Master to set the network to use the default value. (Function 13 is used to instruct the system to use a stored value. ) To set the network to use the default sample alignment value, press Function, followed by the channel 14 active button.
The 6416m Control Master status is controlled by the rear-panel DIP switch #10 setting. This is not changed when the factory defaults are restored. VDC configuration for GPIO type—Isolated or TTL—is not reset. VDC baud rate, parity, and stop bit settings for RS-232 communication are not reset. These are hardware settings configured via the DIP switches in the VDC section of the rear-panel part of the interface.
Firmware Update Pro64 modules can be updated in the field using a PC and the Pro64 Update Tool application. Modules can be updated over A-Net, while part of an active audio network, or in local mode where no other modules are connected at the time the update is being performed (such as may be required for a bench configuration when setting up modules prior to installation).
LEDs will flash to indicate that this function will interrupt normal network operation. Press E nter to enable the module to receive new firmware from the PC host. Send the firmware update following the instructions that came with the Pro64 Update Tool. During the update the sixteen red, yellow and green channel meter LEDs will flash in sequence. When the firmware update has been sent successfully, the module will reset and normal front panel operation will be restored.
When a module is being updated via A-Net in an active network, the dot in the A-Net Slot display will be on, indicating that a network firmware update is in progress. When a module is waiting for a firmware update to begin, you can exit the firmware update state by pressing the Cancel button. If the firmware update has not yet started, the module will attempt to reset, returning it to normal operation.

DB25 Audio Connections Aviom analog input and output modules with DB25 multi-pin connectors are wired to the analog pinout that has become standard in the audio industry (which is sometimes referred to as the Tascam® DA-88 or DTRS pinout). This wiring standard allows easy interfacing with a variety of audio equipment using readily-available multi-pin breakout cables or by incorporating Aviom’s PB28 Modular Patch Bay products. Each DB25 jack on an Aviom product carries eight balanced audio channels.
Using DB25 Jacks The DB25 panel-mount connectors on Aviom products have #4-40 UNC threads. Be sure to get DB25 breakout cables with the correct thread type; forcing the connectors by using the wrong thread type will strip one or more of the mating components rendering them unusable. Strain relief is suggested when using DB25 cable assemblies. DB25 breakout cables should always be supported when connected to an Aviom product to reduce the risk of damaging the product’s rear panel.
RS-232 Cables and Pinout Using an RS-232 device with Pro64 devices requires a female-to-female DB9 null modem cable (also referred to as a crossover cable). The RS-232 jack in the VDC section of the 6416m has the following pinout. 1 2 6 3 7 4 8 5 9 The DB9 connector on a Pro64 device has the pinout seen above. The table below describes the pinout for the RS-232 and how to build a crossover-type cable. Note that some of the pins are not connected.
