Hi Bart,

Excerpted from http://idobartana.com/hakb/modifying_computer_interface.htm

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

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.

Subject: [mh] EON3 x-10 computer module cable?

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.

Regards

Bart

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