Folks,

Is the "wired" RS-232 on the RFX9600, (the 4th connector, far right) also a phoenix connector? Possibly already plugged into the socket?

This is another thing Philips should be providing, damn it! What is the pinout for this 4th connector. Is it straight through or does it need to be "reversed".

I am generally dissapointed with Philips on all of this stuff on the RFX9600! You think they would produce a white paper or something which calls all of this stuff out! Why make us scramble around experimenting???? Why make us discover this stuff?? Why not anticipate the installer's needs and TELL US IN ADVANCE?? That would be incredibly novel if you did this!

No spec on the power sensing. No product specifed. No instuctions at all.
No spec on the Lutron Radio RA system at all. Had to dig it out from someone who had already figured it out. What is the proper product configuration??
No spec on the RS-232 ports.
No Spec on the 4th RS-232 straight-wire ports.
No spec on the IR emitter ports. What is the milliamp power on low and what is the milliamp power on high? Ever thought that maybe we might like to use a high-powered blaster and we might want to know in advance what the current rating can be?

Come on Pronto Team! You did well so far and you just plain blew it on the Dealer/Installer implementation communications.
