Loox 600 connection details needed

[pmcculey]

I am trying to interface a pocket Loox to an instrument I am building. I need to get the following information.

1. The pin out of the cradle connector at the bottom of the machine. I have most of it figured out, but want to double check things like CTS, DSR etc.
2. Standard RS232 levels are in the region of +/-12 volts. Looking at the output of the Loox, the TX output swing appears to be much less than this (~+/-4 volts if I remember correctly). This level will be OK for sending data to our instrument, but I was concerned with the levels we would be sending from our system (+/-12 volts) into the RX & handshaking pins of the Loox.

Space is at a premium in my application so using a standard serial cable for the Loox is not an option.

Can anyone help? I tried Fujitsu directly, but got nowhere.

Thanks
