Hi, I've managed to get a few x-10 modules made by EON3. Unfortunately the computer module didn't come with the cable so I can't actually use them as yet. I was wondering if anyone knew what the pinouts for the cable is so I can make one up. It appears to be a rj11 plug which I assume goes to a 9 pin serial connector. Any info would be appreciated.

Hi Bart, Excerpted from http://idobartana.com/hakb/modifying_computer_interface.htm <QUOTE> The following is a description of the CM11A pinouts, for a RS232 version. The notation for RJ11 (phone style plug) is as follows: Viewing the plug from it's contact side, the wire order is from left to right: Yellow-Green-Red-Black The notation for the RS232 pin is a standard D9 female plug, usually marked on the plug itself. RS232 pin RJ11(phone style) pin 2 Yellow 3 Red 5 Black 9 Green </QUOTE> FWIW you'll see the computer module referred to as the CM11 and the CM12. I believe that the last digit is referring to the mains voltage - 1=110VAC, and 2=240VAC.

The plug for the CM11A end is the smaller modular handset connector, not the regular size RJ11 telephone plug.
