Any info of where the serial port headers are on the board would be useful.

It is located at J1. Same pin assignment as a DB-9.
Since it is 8 pin header, pin 9 is not used.
You can buy a 10pin flat-cable type DB-9 cable, with 1-2 aligned, 9-10 not connected, in addition to a null modem cable, you can see the message coming out at 115200 baud rate.
Enjoy.

sorry for asking but what do you meen "with 1-2 aligned, 9-10 not connected" i made a cabel that goes from pin 1 on the N1200 PCB to (pin) 1 on the serial port and so on. and i cant get it to work. im using tutty 115200 Baud, Data bit 8, Parity None, Stop bits 1, Flow control None is that not the way to do it  |

The 10pin flat cable is for some old motherboards that don't have DB-9 male connector on board. Besides, N1200 board comes with 8 pin header only, that's why I said 9-10 not connected.
If you custom-made a cable, only 3 wires are required. Pin 2, 3 and 5. Since the null cable is for Rx/Tx crossing, so if you still find the console does not display, just swap pin 2 and pin 3 and try again.
