Hi James; Thanks for the reply. Here's the latest. We have 3 Rivendell systems all are V2.10.3. Two are from the appliance disk one is compiled from source. All work with Mincom. But only the one works from Rivendell and that one is the, complied from source, machine. BTW the other 2 machines send no output from Rivendell to the com port at all. I'm stumped???????

It seems that the SRC-16 switcher is a choice here. In your testing with minicom, if you successfully made it work while logged in as the same user that your Rivendell runs on, then this means all the permissions stuff is correct. Not sure if you can use minicom and Rivendell at the same time on a serial port, if it is allowing you to do so, perhaps this is a clue that you don't have Rivendell correctly going to the serial port in the first place. Finally, just checking, you DO have the full path name to the "TTL Device" in your "Serial port setup" as in "/dev/ttyS0" not just "ttyS0"? I'm also assuming that ttyS0 is in fact your serial port and not something like "/dev/ttyUSB0"? (I'm thinking you have this right from your testing with minicom) On 5/28/2015 10:00 AM, rivendell-dev-requ...@lists.rivendellaudio.org wrote: > Date: Wed, 27 May 2015 22:18:08 -0400 > From: "Joe Panarello"<j...@systemsciences.com> > To: "'Frederick Gleason'"<fr...@paravelsystems.com>, > <rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org> > Subject: [RDD] Trying to get Rivendell to work with Broarcast Tools > SRC 16... > Message-ID: <001f01d098ec$8b3dc790$a1b956b0$@com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > Hi; > I wonder if anyone has had this problem or could shed some light on > the issue.
