The pin-out of the J5-J10 connectors is fairly consistent,
but of necessity not identical because of differences
among the various serial controllers:
The ground pins are included as signal references with off-
board hardware.
When interconnecting between two connectors among J5-
J10, DO NOT jumper corresponding pins straight across,
as this connects outputs to outputs and inputs to inputs.
Rather, connect at least each pin 1 to the other pin 2, and
enough opposing inputs and outputs as needed to make
the communication protocol meaningful.
The pin-out of the 12-pin J13-J15 connectors is similar to
that of J5-J10, but more extensive. To allow for the “DCE”
connectors that were added in revision “B” of the board,
J13 and J14 are 16-pin headers and J15 is a 14-pin one:

To use a serial chip controller with the
following on-chip serial interface:
Connect the connector(s)
from the previous table to:
J1A or J1B EIA-RS-232 Console
J13
J2A or J2B EIA-RS-232
J14
RS-422 differential: J3A or J3B EIA-530 or J4 Circular-8 (DIN)
