Here are the settings we use for our 850:

Bits per Second = 9600
Data Bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop Bits = 2
Flow Control = None

DST files work fine and you might look at embroidery fonts plus for transferring the files to the machine. As for the serial cable, you'll want to find or make a "null modem cable with full handshaking". They're fairly simple to make and you should be able to find a pinout diagram with a search. If not, post back and I'll try to give some instructions.

You do need a special cable. Pinout is in the back of Toyota user manual. Also posted on the Yahoo group for Toyota Embroidery.
