#72306 - Multimeter measurement is meaningless
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Ahmed Barakat said:
2-about the voltage when measure the voltage coming on pin 2 of RS232 cable I found -10.4v I'm using a Multimeter

I'm afraid this is not a valid test at all:
Think about what an RS232 signal looks like - how can that possibly relate to a multimeter voltage reading?!

Do you have access to an oscilloscope?
