A lot of RS422 equipment uses TTL level to create the
+/- signal lines
- hooking it directly to RS232 may blow up your tranceivers, not work,
or both. Or, it may work - I think old Macs were tolerant enough to
do that.
Yes, Macs with RS-422 ports usually could take RS-232 (using a converter
cable) without a problem. I did this all the time.
