I just ordered some stuff to do a breakout box with from Amazon. I’ll be able to test easier in two days.

But, when I ran my bitbanger to RS-232 using a NULL modem cable, that also did not work. It’s really looking like an RS-232 Pak issue to me, unless you can’t use the Drivewire cable to do this. (Since it connects from 4-pin to DB9 on a PC with a crossover, it sure seems like it would work.)
