I always struggle with this. Most of the time it is faster and easier to swap pins two and three, then try again -- unless, one side needs flow control. Then you'll be messing with pins seven and eight too. Most of the time neither side supports pins seven and eight. As a hedge it is usually not wrong to jump pins seven and eight on the client end of the cable.

You didn't mention the device you are trying to control so it's difficult to help.

A null modem vs. straight cable would be indicated in the product protocol. If it is a Null modem you will need a gender changer with reversed pins. You must use the RTi supplied connectors. A Mac address does not apply.

XP-6 Manual Page 16 has the pin configuration.
Found it on the dealer site.
