originates at logic level (anything from 2.8V to 5V) and ends up at
logic level somewhere else, so there is little point in converting to

lower, so it may be necessary to convert to and from RS-422 levels.
Many modern 'RS-232' devices, particularly the really cheap USB-serial
modules, in fact use 3.3V/0V or 5V/0V logic levels, as the term 'RS-232'

If you can see this page, or whatever you may have replaced it with,

this first if you have problems (I leave this page in place, despite the
