15:38:37fitzsimiska: My connections are as follows:
15:39:17fitzsimiska: controlling-workstation USB host <-> USB-to-DB-9-Male serial adapter [1] <-> DB-9-Female to DB-9-Female null modem cable [2] <-> DB-9-Male port on ThinkPad dock
15:39:45fitzsim1. I have this one: https://tripplite.eaton.com/keyspan-high-speed-usb-to-serial-adapter~USA19HS but it can be any normal USB-to-DB-9-Male adapter.
15:40:33fitzsim2. For example, https://www.gridconnect.com/products/rs232-female-to-female-db9-null-modem-adapter or it can be in cable form.
15:41:37fitzsimas long as you stay all DB-9 for the serial connections, I do not believe you have to worry about voltage levels
15:59:19iskafitzsim: thanks, I'm getting the stuff
