Hi,

Does anyone know where I can obtain a replacement Citrine-to-PC serial cable?

Alternatively, can anyone tell me the wiring so I can make my own?

Not found any info on Google :-(

Thanks.

Haven't seen a diagram of the serial port of the citrine.  However, Arena users seems to be using 9 pin serial to usb adapters with good results.  They just have to make sure that the protocol used is 57600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.

I use DuckDuckGo.com as my search engine.  Might want to try it.

Thank rayb808. I actually already have a serial to usb converter. My problem is that I don't have the original Citrine serial cable, so I have no way of connecting at the Citrine end :-(

I have since discovered that other Novag's also supported serial communications. I've ordered some parts (RJ12 cables and connectors) and hopefully by next weekend I'll have a working cable. Will post results.

Did you get a cable, or make one yourself? I have the same problem you did - no serial cable for connecting the Citrine to my PC.

The seller found the original cable for me
