The Omni VI and VI+ use regular RS-232 serial communications. If you 
have a regular serial port on your computer you do not need any level 
conversion. The pins used on the 25 pin D connector for TX data, RX data 
and data ground on the Omni VI are probably not standard, so you may 
need to build your own cable.
