getting a wired dumb terminal



On the same subject, does anyone know the actual pin outs for
wiring a Wyse50 terminal to a serial port, I think it's as follows, can
anyone say if this is incorrect?

Pin 2 ----------------------------- Pin 3
Pin 3 ----------------------------- Pin 2
Pin 7 ----------------------------- Pin 7

Yes?
