I can confirm that everything works there. The said cable contains three wires that I have verified to be the same pinouts as described here. RJ45 pins 1,2,8 go to DB9 pins 2,3,5 respectively. I have used three different TTL converters with MAX3238, MAX3232, MAX202, with the same results. The one converter that has LEDs either pulses the TX light without any activity from RX. The times when I get the null results regardless of whether the RJ45 cable is plugged or not, the RX and TX lights pulse simultaneously. Someone here with the same problem said that it turned out to be bad wiring. I've tried every conceivable combination of wiring, different wires, different GPIOs with no improvements. Clearly I'm not getting any data from the inverter. Could my model be so incompatible that I'm not getting anything despite it working with what I understand to be a universal software, WatchPower?
