Figure B-2 shows a properly configured 9-pin DTE to 9-pin DCE cable
including the hardware handshake lines RTS, CTS, and DTR. With this
configuration, the GPIB-232CT-A can function properly (handshake) on
buffer full conditions. Figure B-3 shows an equivalent 9-pin DTE to 25-pin
DCE cable configuration.
