Keep in mind that the DEFINITY AUDIX system is data terminal equipment (DTE),
and that a null modem must be installed whenever you connect the system to
other DTE hardware. If you are connecting DEFINITY AUDIX to data
communications equipment (DCE), use a straight RS-232 connection.
The following table lists the equipment type for hardware typically associated
