    Hi Mark, unfortunately I am out at work for the next 2 weeks so if you haven't got it sorted by the time I get back home I will take some pics and let you know the pin outs.

    I have looked all over the internet - Nothing
    Somehow, I think I will be waiting for you to return home.

    Stay safe and thanks

    Using the serial cable that came with the LC-2, are you able to talk to the LC-2 using Innovate's application software (LogWorks/LMProgrammer)...?

    No I can't, I cut the DB9 serial plug off so I can connect it with that cable to the V2

    The sanity test would be to see if LogWorks can communicate with the LC-2.


    When you cut/spliced the cable, did you swap/reverse the Tx/Rx wires...?

    I had dramas with log works before because of my 64bit os so I didn't worry before cutting the cable which I do now regret.

    I have tried switching tx and rx to no avail suspecting tx and rx are the red and black in pins 1 and 2

    Pin 1 = Rx
    Pin 2 = Tx
    Pin 3 = Gnd
    Pin 4 = Gnd

    I have my MTX-l hooked up, I can check out the colours tonight if you like.

    Thanks Darcy, that would be great.
    pin numbers you mentioned, are they for the RJ11 or the Innovate Serial out plug?
    Colors would help.
    I have been omitting the blue wire. I'd hazard a guess it needs to go to pin 5 of the RJ11 connector.

    Cool LC-2 Problem solved :)

    Thanks for all your help men! I have solved the problem and hopefully this info will help future LC-2 users.

    The wires from the LC-2 WB controller (4-pin plug) are as follows
    * Black
    * Blue
    * Red
    * White

    I have now learned of 2 separate examples where the corresponding serial cable plug wires (although the same colors) do not match up when plugs are connected. Refer the controller side of the plug when terminating wires to the RJ11 connector.

    The required colors and positions for the RJ11 connector are as follows:
    1. Not connected
    2. White
    3. Not connected
    4. Red
    5. Black
    6. Not connected

    Click image for larger version.

    As long as the connected wires on the RJ11 plug match the controller side of the serial cable connector this should work.
    Thanks again to all those who took time to help.

    Regards,

    MarkR8
