Please help me find instructions for setting the signal parameters of the Noran Ultradry detector. Too many trim resistors.

Sounds like a job for a service engineer or a factory technician.
On a modern detector, any user modifiable parameters are likely to be set through software.

What to do? ask the factory?
I thought this section was dedicated to hardware.
I also need a cable to connect the detector to the Noran System 7 unit. DB15-DB9. Or a diagram of such a cable for making it yourself. If you have a diagram please share.

Hello everyone.
I still can't get the cable to connect the detector to the main unit.
Can anyone help me find the code for this cable? The code is needed to search the Internet.
In the figure, the cable is indicated by a red arrow.

In all likelihood, this is a custom cable built in house by Thermo.  A couple of alternatives suggest themselves:
  • maybe Steve Seddio or another Thermo service engineer can send you a schematic; or
  • you can find someone else with this system and they can test the connectivity of their cable to reverse engineer it.
Then you can buy the parts from Digikey or similar and build one yourself.
