Just measured the output pins on desktop RS232 ports: Pin 3 TXD: -11V Pin 4 DTR: -11V Pin 7 RTS: -11V So DTR output negative (-11V) voltage by default. I am curious is there a way prevent Tera Term change DTR pin to Posigve (+1= 1V)=20 voltage? Funny N.

I believe DSR and DTR are a pair, not sure which one is an input to PC, whi= ch=20 one is an output from PC. Is there are way on Tera Term to set the output pin to Negative voltage, e.= g.=20 -5V~-10V? Funny N.

Isn't DSR an input on the computer side? The PC is usually considered =20 the DTE...
