{% hint style="warning" %}
As the device does have a female port and not a male port as seen when connecting a RS232 adaptet to a PC, you have to be careful when using a cable with male connector and gender-switchers: On these cables you have to use the RxD side for transmitting as RxD and TxD will be swapped. Also the ground needs to be wired through. 

One can also find cross-over cables with male to male connectors, like this one [here](https://www.amazon.de/-/en/dp/B08LPT8RMF?ref=fed_asin_title).
