Scott -

If you're talking about a typical DB-25 connector, pin 1 is frame ground, and
pin 8 is CARRIER DETECT. Better you should jumper 20 to 8 and 6. Pin 20 is Data
Terminal Ready (DTR), and comes up when the port is opened. This pwill cause
DCD (8) and DSR (6) to become true every time DTR comes up.

See SERIAL.TXT in DL2 for additional info.
