Tried to get MSview talking to my TS-45 today but had no success as the status LED's are in the way of plugging in the DB9. Tech support said get the Digikey ribbon cable but here again the plug is to thick to go between the LED's and the heat sink. Guess this project goes on the back burner until this winter.
Ask MS for both a make and model that will fit. It should have a smaller serial connector that fits.
That is the problem the Digi Key one they recommend is to thick. The LED assy blocks the plug from reaching the DB9 socket. The only fix I can see is remove the CC from service and remove the heat sink and pc board so the LED assy can be removed and resoldered in to make room. We leave Monday for the summer so this project will have to wait. I had hoped to pull off this winters' desert camping data.
