Ok, so I got a 10ft DB-9 extension serial cable, chopped off the male end to
replace with the CoCo 4-pin connector, but I'm not getting anything at all
on the CoCo 2 except I/O Errors.. I enabled Logging on the DriveWire 3
server, not showing anything there either. Tried both serial ports, not
sure what's going on. I flipped the wires in case I was reading the pins
inverted, still nothing. Hooked CoCo 2 back up to printer and prints fine.
I'm running the CoCo Drivewire ROM via EPROM in my FD502 pak. It says
"HBD-DOS 11.D DW3 COCO 2" after the standard copyright upon bootup.
I'm working from the files & wiring schematic I keep here..

I noticed on the cabling diagram I have for DriveWire, it mentions all 4
connectors being used including a "Vcc". However, on the pinout map,
There's no indication where Pin 1 should be connected to on the PC Serial.
Can anyone please help? Thanks.
