But much easier is it to go to Spectratime website and download the manual: http://www.spectratime.com/products/isource/ http://www.spectratime.com/documents/lpfrs_manual.pdf Already on page 1 I can read the label of the photo which says 6 : TXD (TTL) 9 : RXD (TTL) Which is a good hint.

As for status, the serial interface should give you a bunch of status report. I just haven't taken the time to hook it up.
