Maybe you need to connect pins 4 and 5 (RTS/CTS) in the connector on the
Sun side of the cable. Maybe you reversed the numbering of the pins on
the MMJ connector? If you have a voltmeter check the voltages on pin 2
and 3 on the connector on the Sun side of the cable. Pin 2 (output)
should have a higher voltage then pin 3 (input).

Yes, and software handshake.
