Yeah, I got one of the Nokia mobile phone cables off of Ebay to do
this. They are 3.3v. There is a site which describes the pinout here:

When you plug in the cable, I think it shows up as uplcom.

I just need to pry open the Dockstar and hook up this cable to the
proper pins and see why the machine is crashing.
