I am trying to wire up a mini din 8 plug for my IIgs with an
AE Datalink express modem.  The reason I am trying to modify the
plug is that I cannot get the DTR to work and the manual for my
BBS program (Warp 6) suggests a cable modification.
The pin mapping is given as follows
 Computer end          Modem end
  HSKo 1  ------------- 2 HSKi
  HSKi 2  ------------- 1 HSKo
  TxD  3  ------------- 5 RxD
  SG   4  ------------- 4 SG
  RxD  5  ------------- 3 TxD
  TxD  6  ------------- 8 RxD
  Gpi  7 -------------- 7 GPi
  RxD  8  ------------- 6 SG


 The plug looks like this
 
         ------
          ooo
         o o o
          o o
But the pins are not numbered!
Any clues, and is this rewiring the proper thing to fix the DTR problem?
Thanks in advance.
