Hi,

I am unable to connect to my 5big2 from network (http and clunc). The Front blue LED is always blinking. So I would like to display the startup message from its serial port. I bought a cable but I don't know where are the TX, RX and GRND.

Do you know the pinout of the J2 connector?

Thank you very much.

Hi xuttux,

There is no information about it on our site or nas-central.

As 2big2 is almost the same platform than 5big2 you can try to use this plugging schema : http://lacie.nas-central.org/wiki/Serial_port_%282Big_2%29
