If the CT-119 programming cable or 8-pin mini-DIN PGM-SW (P0091526) is not
available you will need a serial cable RS-232C, DB9F to DB9F straight cable. Please
follow these instructions.
*Don't forget to write down (or save to a CF Card) any personal menu settings you have changed from the
default before you start. Please see the DMU-2000 Data Management Operation Manual for the procedure
