The Graphlink plugs directly into a 25-pin male serial port. These
days PCs have 9-pin male connectors for their serial (COM) ports. The
TI-Graphlink has a 9-pin female adapter for that case. If you need an
adapter and didn't get one with the Graphlink, you should return it to the
place you bought it. It's missing
parts. Are you sure you're not trying to hook it up to a parallel port?
