[teQ] The Serial port pinout of ASUS motherboard

如果你用華碩的主機板，又想要使用板上的串列阜的話。
除了跟華碩購買原廠配件外，就只能自行製作囉。

If you are using motherboard from ASUS, and you want enable the on board serial port (COMx). DIY is the only thing you can do besides purchasing from ASUS. 

我是用ASUS的P8Z68-M Pro這張主機板(你能看到截圖中的型號)

I am using the motherboard P8Z68-M Pro from ASUS(as you can see the model name in captured)

一般主機板上串列阜的腳位排列如下。

There is the serial port pin-out of normal motherboard. 

華碩主機板的腳位排列跟一般的不一樣。

The serial port pin-out of ASUS motherboard is quite different.

找到一個一般用的串列阜外接擋板。

Try to find a serial port external connector with normal type.

由於排針的接頭無法再做加工更改。
所以，我們只能更動外接擋班板上連接點。

Because we can not change the pin-out on the motherboard side. So, we turn to change the  junction on external connector side instead. 

(一般連接點)

(junction of normal type)

更動成下列ASUS特有排列。(第一針腳是不動的)

Re-order the pin-out of junction as the ASUS type.(the first pin is never changed) 

(華碩連接點)

(junction of ASUS type)

以上。

That's it.
