Steve, Is it possible that the TPDD has a damaged RS232 driver or reciver? Probably a SN75188 or MC1488? Is it working with a real M100?

What I am trying to do, since VirtualT seems to be unable to receive any data (still can't get that to work), I've reverted to this M100 <------> PC COM1 (sniffer program) PC COM2 <------> TPDD I have the M100 <---> COM1 working I have COM2 <-----> NADSbox working But I cannot get COM2 <-----> TPDD working! I have a feeling it is the non-RS-232 signal levels of the TPDD. thx Steve
