When you look into the subD connector on the shoestring adapter it has a row of 5 pins and a row of 4 pins.
On the row of 4 pins, the 2 outermost pins are the transmit and recieve.
All you do is plug the adapter into the lappie
use the paperclip/etc to short the 2 pins together and then use the connect button in my app. ( A spare pair of hands helps here )
If the adapter is working, the data will get sent and immediately loop back and the log will show it sending :e1[0D] and then receiving it back.

I got the echo!
