If you followed the other threads in this forum, you'd know that others and I need a way to have a serial console on the infamous Siemens SE505 dsl/cable router (V2) :-)
My question is: Has anyone found the location on the board were to "grab" the RX, TX, (perhaps RTS/CTS?) lines and some voltage and ground? I have come along a lot of photos of other hardware and guides to connect a serial cable to these devices but not yet for a SE505... :-(
On this board there is a "normal" 5x2 header and 4-pin header in a (Molex?) socket like they are from these CD-ROM audio cables in a PC... (I believe that the 5x2 is JTAG and the 4-pin is serial. But who knows? And what may be the pin-assignment?)
If someone needs photos of my board (v2) I could send them via PM. (No official space on the web to put them on...)
I hope somebody could help me to help the community preparing OpenWrt for the large(?) market of SE505 owners...
Salut, Jörg
Hi ,
I owned a SE 505 V2 and the RS232 pins are on the 4 pin ( maybe Molex ??? ) Connector .
I can not make pictures , but here a little ascii diagram who show you the pinout of this connector
| 0 0 0 0 |
| 1 2 3 4 |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
front of the se 505
pin 1 = Ground ( GND )
pin 2 = TX
pin 3 = RX ( attention , this pin is not tested , the orginal firmware give you no login to test this )
pin 4 = Vcc ( + 3,3 V )
Believe me , you cannot connect the pins directly to your RS 232 at your PC , instead you have to use a RS232
level shifter circuit with a MAX 3232 IC or similar to convert the 3,3 V to the 12 V of the RS 232 and reverse .
I have connected such a circuit to the router , baudrate was 115200 bd , 8 N 1 , and at boot i got this :
Decompressing..........done

this is the boot message (s) of the orginal Firmware
I think we can not use Openwrt on this router without modification , because the led - driver module of this unit
is working totally different .
BTW : anyone out there who know the location of the pins at the second rs232 port ????
