NOTE: This connector is for a remote control external modem connection only. Please see Appendix B for
information on how to use a terminal program along with an internal RS-232 connector for troubleshooting
purposes.
RS-232 Modem Port
NOTE: You must use a standard straight-through serial cable and not a null modem cable when connecting the RS-
232 connector of the Omnia and the external modem. Typically this would be 9-pin to 25-pin cable. (External
modems traditionally have 25 pin connectors in "DCE" configuration. The OmniaONE has a 9 pin in "DTE"
configuration, so the standard 9-pin to 25-pin cable will work).
