We're getting weird data with our first pass code in Java so we don't know if that's the code or an interface problem.
We have used the TTL board from the 2005, 2006 CMU Camera just fine into the RS-232 for testing to convert a microprocessor TTL into RS-232 into the CRIO-I serial port. If you have one of those laying around to try it, it works.
