If you use the resistor, it goes on red and green (I haven't found it necessary)

The black wire can be ignored
noted. you do need the terminator though.

Anybody else able to confirm the pinout? Unlike the db9 adapters from mono price these seem to use the correct color/rj12 color scheme. Unless I hear otherwise, I will promptly edit the document to reflect that.
