netBook Pro with Series 7 Docking cradle

[sterling]

Folks,
I've used the Psion Series 7 Docking station with my netBook Pro and I can confirm it works!
However the syncing doesn't seem to work if I use the Pro's serial connector via the Docking station to my PC.
I notice that the PC is trying to handshake with the netBook Pro but it ultimately fails.

If I connect the serial cable directly to my Pro then it is working.
anyone experienced this problem or is there a different wiring in the docking station for the serial connection?

cheers, r.

The wiring in the NETBOOK PRO's serial cable is different from that used in the other Psions - Siena, 3c, 3mx, 5, 5mx, 7 and netBook.

I know this, but the thing is, if I use the Netbook Pro serial cable and attach it to my docking cradle then it refuses to connect to my PC.
If however I connect the Netbook Pro serial directly to the PC then it works.
It seems that the Docking station is using doesn't seem to be compatible with the Netbook Pro serial cable.
