Tom's being getting rather annoyed at not being able to download data off the magic PAT machine. Mainly because the RS232 lead it uses isn't standard.
To save yourself hours of frustration, should you want to make one... he's suggested I put how on this here blog...
How to build a data cable for a Robin Smart PAT 5000.
Obtain one male and one female 9-pin D-sub connectors and a suitable length of RS-232 2 pair cable.
Wire it like this:
PAT tester end (male) --> Computer end (female)
2 --> 4, 6, 8
3 --> 2
5 --> 5Hey presto, it works.
I hope it helps somebody!
