A lot of times you can make RS 232 work even without the handshake lines 
like CTS, DTR, RTS.

You loop back pin 4 to 5 of the 25 pin D connector, and you hook 6, 8, and 
20 together.  2, and 3 are your transmit and receive, and pin 7 is the 
common.

Pin 1 is chassis ground, but do not share it with 7.

For 9 pin RS 232, Google "RS 232 hook up" and you should get diagrams of 
connectors commonly used.
