Does anyone have a definitive answer as to what I need to hook up an E3 to a PC serial port?
The various opinions I've seen so far are:
* If you just wire it up, it may work, but you run some risk of frying the UART in the E3.
True; I have mine wired up at present with no converter or level shifter.
* If you just wire it up, it won't work, because you need to invert the signal levels.
* You can wire it up to an E2 line level converter and it will work.
True if taken together I believe; you need an E2 style converter plus an inverter. J. -- noodles is good in nagahama
