[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 442162, member: 6967"] The lead is only a DB9 to Molex, I could make one for a couple of quid. Most of the specialist leads are just RS232 or USB to RS232 with a molex connector on the end. Once you know the pin-out you can make yourself a lead, or an adapter for existing leads for next to nothing. I have got loads that I have acquired/made over the years for various phone systems/alarm panels, some are a complete rip-off, some are not that bad considering. The assumption of the manufacturers is that most people will just buy the lead/software for no hassle, even though the parts are cheap and simple and the software is free. Basic economics, it's nothing new. [/QUOTE]
