I am trying to connect a Visual Display Unit thru the Serial Port, but it does seem to be responding I can send 2 bytes of data to ring a bell in the Visual Display Unit but it does not seem to be doing anything else. I have checked the cables, and tried everything I can think of! Has anyone done a similar thing? I would appreciate any help. Thanks, Mohit e-mail: verma@wucs1.wustl.edu
