Dell,

Thank you for taking the time to send the setup information. However, it still does not communicate. I did a master reset of the Omni with no change?

I have a couple of additional questions. The PCI serial card has two DB9 female connectors on it. Looking at the hardware information on Windows XP it says they are COM-5 and Com-6. How do I tell which is which? I.E.: is the cable hooked up to 5 or 6?

In TRX the setup manager (Parameters) on the right side there is a TRX Port 1 with a pull down box with all of the possible Com 5,6 etc connections. Below this is another pull down box with Com 5, 6 etc. Which one is for the communication port the cable is hooked up to my computer? What is the other one for?

Thank you again for your help.

Best,
DW Holtman

Hi Dyke
I don't remember If you have a manual, And if you checked the settings according to the manual. When I ran TRX the first time The only thing i had to do was select the rig then pick my baud rate and comm port. Everthing else I left as default. I have Addr.=04, Ctrl=E0, mem=90, Stop bits=2, TRX Port1=Com 4, CAT speed=19200, dual control=checked, RTS Enable=checked, DTR enabled=checked, PTT=CAT, TX Interrupt=DSR,. I use a over the counter Belkin cable from computer to rig. I am using vista 64 on a duel Intel CPU. I also had to buy a serial card but mine was a Rosewell. Just be sure the rig is the same settings as Comp.
 Also you might try a master rest of the Rig. Might have a brain cramp.

Hello,

I installed a PCI serial card from byterunner. Windows
under XT under
Hardware information, tells me that it is properly
installed and working. I
triple checked the wiring in the cable. Tried Hyperterminal
as suggested in
the Ten Tec troubleshooting document. Not too sure that I
had Hyperterminal
was set up correctly? Still no luck, no communication. I
tried two software
packages, HRD and TRX.

Any suggestions on where I should go from here?

Thank you,
