I just got a new wang 724 on ebay for cheap. The only thing was it doesn't have a cord. What cord do I need to get for it?

Will post pics tomorrow.

RJ11... oh no. Appears those were some sort of terminal model, so you don't need a cable but a teensy or chameleon or something for controller mod to use it on pc.

It says for use with IBM AT, PS/2 and all wang listed equipment on the back.

Somebody on ebay used to make the cables and sell them although I don't see a listing for it right now. Here is how it's wired...

I believe so, yes, wired as shown above. The above diagram came from sandy55s "connectors" page where you will also find pinouts for AT vs PS/2 connectors if you need them and a vairiety of others. And here is the sandy55 Wang 724 page FYI.
