[ql-users] sernet problems (again:))
Hi all ! Despite all your help last time I cant figure out how to get my Q40 talk whith qpc2. On the Q40: baud 9600 lrespr sernet snet 1 sernet and the equivalent on qpc2. /Michael Grunditz

On the Q40: baud 9600 lrespr sernet snet 1 sernet and the equivalent on qpc2. What is the wiring of your cable? If both are 9 pin this should work: 2 RX - 3 TX 3 TX - 2 RX 4 DTR - 6 DSR 5 GND - 5 GND 6 DSR - 4 DTR 7 RTS - 8 CTS 8 CTS - 7 RTS 9 CD NC Most null modem cables will be like this. Try testing the connection first direct using a terminal program each end. Then type characters each side. If you see them uncorrupted, then you have a handshaking problem at speed. If you see nothing at all either end then you have problems. It could be one or other serial card is not working or not set up properly. The Q40 end is the most likely problem, as PC bios will default to an OK state. You will then need a known working PC serial port to test against. One that works with a serial mouse is a good starter, but serial mice work at 1200 bps and do not use handshaking! A port that works at speed with a modem will probably be working, but CTS is often not used at all, and sometimes not even wired on the modem cable. For sernet it is vital that both RTS and CTS are used and working. A 'real' QL is a good testing machine - although only with Hermes/superHermes and working motherboard buffers. -- QBBS (QL fido BBS 2:252/67) +44(0)1442-828255 tony@surname.co.uk http://www.firshman.co.uk Voice: +44(0)1442-828254 Fax: +44(0)1442-828255 TF Services, 29 Longfield Road, TRING, Herts, HP23 4DG

Re: [ql-users] sernet problems (again:))
The cable works ok between qpti - qpti. Character by Character or under heavy load (e.g. ZMODEM)? The handshake needs to be working. How many serial ports do you have in the Q40? 2 or 4? I suggest you write a little BASIC routine which transfers masses of data simultaneously both directions and count and compare to ensure that no character loss occurs. On my Q40, SERNET worked only on 2 COM ports as the two other ones had interrupt problems and lost characters. Jochen

As I had a 4-ser card in the Q40 (of which only 2 worked properly due to interrupt problems) I had to fiddle a bit to see which of the two worked without problems, and used the one without interrupts for the mouse. I also managed 115k data rates between all machines, and they worked fine. I guess it is a cable problem in most cases - you can easily try connecting the two machines with your nul modem cable and start QTPI on both systems. If you see on the other machine what you typed on one system and vv, then the cable is correct. It was not working here in most cases where problems were reported to me, so blaming SERNET for that is a bit unfair. If you then have a working connection, and you were able to transfer data at higher rates using ZMODEM (for example) both ways, then SERNET was working too. Regards Jochen

The link will usually work with incorrect handshake if data rate is slow. It is vital on links to 'real' QLs that handshake is correctly connected. You _might_ get away with it on fast hardware with good serial chips - like 16550 (PN from memory).

Sernet works on all SMSQ/E systems and also non-SMSQ/E systems with SIMSER. On a QL with Superhermes, you will have to use SER1 or SER2. The superhermes SER3 failed to connect on my serial network.

Yes, my successes have been with this type of cable, which I think is wired like the diagrams I included in QL Today and on my website somewhere. Wiring is critical, the slightest booboo and it will either not work at all or only at very low baudrates (usually not at all). Sernet is one off those things that either it fails miserably and takes ages to set up, or once working works perfectly, faultlessly and quickly becomes one of those things you could never have managed without it. When I get time I'll go back to the Aurora system to try that out again. -- Dilwyn Jones

Remember that Sernet on an Aurora will NOT work on anything above 4800 baud regardless superHermes. AH! I have been (trying to) use it at default (9,600 baud?) baudrate.

Re: [ql-users] sernet
I have not tried these two computers but I do use Sernet from time to time. There were several articles about Sernet (including one about Q40) on page 31 of Volume 1 Issue 5 of QL Today, in case you find something to help you in there. I have v2.25 of sernet happily running on QPC between my desktop PC and my wife's laptop, and I'm sure I've had it running between Aurora and QPC in the past, but I've just tried it now and I get the same result as you between Aurora and QPC. I will be listening (reading?) carefully for a solution to this to see if I can get it running again between my Aurora and QPC.

Re: [ql-users] sernet
Ah, interesting, it used to work fine between my Aurora/Super Gold Card and QPC2, but using the same cable as I used to it no longer works, only difference between the systems is different versions of SMSQ/E since then (rather old on the Aurora). Or of course something broke since then. -- Dilwyn Jones - Original Message - From: Phoebus R.

Apart from that I have it here and working fine with both QPC2 and Aurora/SGC Phoebus -- Visit the QL-FAQ at: http://www.dokos-gr.net/ql/faq/ (Still uploading stuff!)
