9 pin could be anything.  On computer monitors 9-pin was used for CGA/EGA
displays.  9-pin is also commonly used on RS-232 serial.  It would seem
rather unlikely that a magnifier would be putting out a serial signal.  The
question you're asking can't be answered without a bit more info about the
Magnifier.  What make/model is it?  What does the label on it say?
