     The only thing you need to do now is attach your cable to the COM1
port of your MS-DOS machine and add these lines to your autoexec.bat
program.
 
     mode lpt1:=com1
     mode com1:96,n,8,1
 
     If you are using COM2:
 
     mode lpt1:=com2
     mode com2:96,n,8,1 "
 
Look for a driver for a NEC 8023A.  I have never done this.  This is a
file from my bbs.  Good luck.
