Viewsat extreme cable

[rick]

I've been trying to load my new vs2000 with the null modem cable used on my pansat and couldn't get it to work. I finally tried the cable that came with the unit and it worked! I thought that I read some where that the vs2000 uses a regular null modem cable. Quess not! Can anyone tell me what kind of cable IS used on the vs2000?

Thanks for the info. I have plenty of modem cables laying around. I just did not want to lose the vs cable if it was wired special and not be able to replaced it
