    Hello,
    I need a cable between the ST10 and the remote TC 237 15 meters length .
    Is it possible technically speaking ?
    Where could I buy them ?

    If not :
    -Could I make it ?
    -Which is the specificity of this type of cable ?
    -Which are references of these plugs ?

    Thank you.

    Rémy

    I can't guarantee it will work over that distance. In fact I suspect it won't.

    You would need a shielded 15-pin DB-15 cable. Connect all wires 1 to 1, 2 to 2, etc. Shield should be connected to shell at both ends.

    Thank you Doug for this answer. What is the reason why you think it could not work ? What is the maximum length I could use ?
    Thank you.

    Never tested it, so I am not going to guarantee anything.

    Possible reasons for failure: voltage loss due to wire resistance, noise issues, etc.

    All you can do is try it.
