Revision as of 22:14, 19 October 2012
The Radioshack 22-812 is a 4000 counts, CAT II handheld digital multimeter with RS-232 connectivity. The 22-812 is no longer sold under this part number, and for a while, it appeared to have been discontinued. Radioshack does sell a visually identical multimeter, the 22-039. It is not yet clear if the Radioshack 22-039 is the same device as the 22-812.
This devices has a standard DB-9 connector at the top, and does not require a special adapter cable. The RS-232 transmitter is optically insulated from the rest of the device. The transmitter uses a separate PCB, integrated into the multimeter's housing.

Protocol
The device periodically sends 9-byte packets at 4800 baud, 8n1. The packet includes a mode indicator, payload and checksum. the payload is a 1-1 mapping of the LCD segments.
