<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have recently acquired a used TNC-200 and I am
unable to communicate between it and the computer. When power is applied I
get 5 lights on the front and while I am connected to the port with
HyperTerminal all I get are "off the wall" characters, nothing legible, and no
commands are accepted.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have matched the baud on the TNC to the baud on the
port and vice versa, trying everything between 1200 and 9600 baud.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have tried using a null modem, to no avail.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Don't know if I am missing something, or just loosing
my mind.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any assistance is appreciated</FONT> </P>
