NOTE. Most Personal Computers are DTE devices; however, printers
may be either DTE or DCE, and the type may not be obvious from
the printer documentation or the gender of the RS-232 connector. If
you have trouble outputting a 764 Session report, first verify that
communication parameter and Baud rate settings are correct, then
try reversing the conductors at pins 2 and 3 and 7and 8 at the cable
end that is connected to the 764.

The following hardware/software and 764 settings have been verified
effective for either printing a session report to a printer or download-
