Compatibility, care & archival notes
- Use documented pinout and RS-232 levels; DB9 alone does not indicate RS-422/485.
- Record PCB/revision identifiers, subsystem IDs, firmware and supplied accessories; OEM and retail versions may differ.
- Retain a verified backup and known-good driver/firmware before changing a working legacy configuration.
