Re: 3pin RS232 port doesnt work on camera. can't debug while connecting through the D

Leav,

Have you tried wiring up a 9 pin to PWM-style connector to go through your RS232-TTL adapter? The pinout should be:
Code:
PWM     RS232
1 Blk   5
2 Red   3
3 Wht   2
I'm 95% positive that's correct. If not, you'd have to swap red and white. Also, can you be certain the problem is your 3 pin header and not your RS232-TTL adapter? You could use a similar PWM to 9-pin adapter to connect your computer to the camera's 3-pin connector to check that. You'd need to change the gender of the connectors, but the pinout stays the same.
