[Coco] DIN 4 connector for serial port

[Salvador Garcia]

 Agreed, After looking around, I found only one DIN 4, excluding the mini DIN, of course. It seemed like the obvious choice. I am going to check all four connectors, just to make sure that the one that I tested wasn't deformed and that's why it didn't fit. The pins "looked" bigger than the orifices on the plug.

That's the only config for the DIN4, as far as I can see.  DIN5 and DIN6 
have 2 options, but DIN4 looks to only be specified in one config:
