Irda To Serial Port Switch.
« on: December 05, 2005, 05:54:23 pm »
Hello,
I want to add a switch wich switches between the irda and a new serial port on the irda.
Is it possible to use the irda as rs323?
I dont meen these adapters. I want to solder some cable on the irda and add an switch so I could use my mouse or sth. on that port and if I ever need the irda so is switch between them.
Any pinouts?
thx

[EDIT]
I've just found those pinouts[1] on my favorite pinoutsite[2].

There is no standard pinout, but some examples are listed.
