Greetings, Would any list members happen to be familiar with a terminal server sold by BlackBox that was oroginally manufactured by Racal-Datacomm, model No. BTS-100? A while back, I obtained one of these, but I can't seem to get it to work by connecting a terminal to the console port; I've tried data rates between 300 and 19,200, and nothing; also tried a few other ports. Something tells me that the best thing to do is reset the server to the default settings, but I'm not sure how to do this; no reset switch inside, but there is is a jumper inside that I'm going to try changing next. Any ideas for sources of documentation? The manufacturer and black box consider it ancient and can't help. Also, is anyone her familiar with the apparently not-so-rare defect in Emulex Performance 4000 terminal servers that causes a short circuit? I'm told by Emulex that they have an idea what the problem is, as a certain something is known to go bad in these units, but they refuse to tell me as I'm not an authorized repair center. Short of unsoldering surface mount ICs, I've disconnected and removed everything that I can find to disconnect and remove, and the short on the circuit board remains. The PSU seems ok when I apply other loads to it. -- R. D. Davis rdd(a)perqlogic.com http://www.perqlogic.com/rdd 410-744-4900
