    Can someone provide more details on the specifics of Toughbook remote on/off via serial port as discussed in this post . The pics are gone that I think provide detail. How can this be wired up?
    I am trying the troubleshoot the PDRC replacement made by iKey. It is supposed to have this functionality but is it not working. I am looking for a way to test the functionality of this process independently of the screen.
