I have both a model 301 remote knob and computer serial communications
connected to the DB-25 connector on my Omni VI, and it works fine. I had
to make a 'Y' adapter with three 25 pin D connectors. If you need exact
pin to pin wiring instructions I can give you that information easily,
since I never got around to putting connector shells on it, I can see
where every wire goes. Just let me know and I'll email a wiring list to
the reflector.
