I've been banging my head on this on and off for over a year. Phil has
made me feel a little better by verifying what I was hitting.
Phil - I'm on Linux using MINICOM or DOS using an old PROCOMM. Sending
a break while doesn't seem to have any effect. How long is the break
being held for? (PROCOMM is configurable.)
Also, you say you are using 9600 O81 for the protocol? That is
different than the Code Ninja page, which says 9600 N81. Can you give
me all of the parameters so I can at least reproduce the reset that you
managed to trigger?
Thanks,
Mike
I suspect that if PC drivers are unearthed, it
will be a simple matter
to throw a serial analyzer on the line and look for traffic - I'd do that
myself with an HP4951, but, again, that will months from now.
I have the RS/6000 drivers, and software that supports the LPFK, and the
machine itself, including the official IBM serial interface to talk to
one of these.
Peace... Sridhar
