Thanks anyway. I did try and work it out. Although the TX, RX and GND were
easy, the handshake lines were not so obvious. I did get a reply from a
lister in New Zealand, when I tried that and it worked well. I had already
tried the standard RS232 connections, both DCE and DTE without sucsess so it
must be a proprietary pinout.

I don't have THS720A.  Came across a RJ45 carries RS232 signals but
could not find my records, I will search further n inform you when I
found it.

Actually there are not many lines to figure out, try it.  Ask
Tektronix already?

>THS720A but have lost the RS232 cable :-( It is an RJ45 to PC serial
port cable. I have tried the Tektronix web site and done various
searches to no avail.
