lilshawn:
the extra jumpers are to tie the ready to send lines so the computer knows it's okay to transmit.
normally this flow is done through software (a software xon xoff) but because this is a dumb one way connection you need to inform the computer it's okay to just send. (hardware flow control)
it can't hurt to add the additional wires if they wheren't included.
