This UPS requires a "special" COM cable. Is anyone familliar enough
with this UPS to give me a pinout / cable description for this COM
cable?

Sorry if I'm in the wrong newsgroup (again)...

Thanks in advance

Is it not a standard 9 pin serial out? Check out

Thanks for the link, however I wasn't able to find information about
the serial cable nor was I able to sniff out any info with the part
number I've found visiting your link.

I have downloaded the Compaq 3000 series UPS operation and reference
guide who covers my R3000H model. Where it says that the Compaq part
number for the UPS/Computer interface cable is: 295245-004. What kind
of cable is this?!

Also in the manual it's made clear that I'm NOT suposed to use a cable
with part no. 142260-001 and/or 142260-002. The UPS/Computer interface
cable is required to carry power and therefore is wired diffrently.

Oh btw, The reason I'm asking for pinout / cable description is that I
would prefer to build the cable myself from some spare parts I have
lying round - Buying a new cable who is VERY expensive is not an option
(at least not now).
