 Typically you can just connect the USB/Serial device to the Serial cable of the photometer, but for the Topcon you will need a nullmodem connector between the two (this swaps the read/write lines for communication). It looks like this (remember this should **only** be necessary for Topcon). Typically you can just connect the USB/Serial device to the Serial cable of the photometer, but for the Topcon you will need a nullmodem connector between the two (this swaps the read/write lines for communication).
