I am having a bit of a problem with my serial port I hope someone
can help me with.

I tried to hook a terminal up to the serial port and run it through
the AUX device. I know the terminal works because I can use it with a HAYES
modem with no problems. (Also the cables are good.) I can also use the
modem with the AMIGA through the serial port.

I make sure the AUX is mounted, then type, "newcli AUX:" as it says in the
1.3 manual. I make sure the baud rates and such is set right.

But nothing happens with the terminal. No commands entered, no echo, Zip!

I believe another problem is related -- I also get no luck hooking up a
serial interfaced (RS-232) PaintJet to the serial port. I make the PaintJet
pick in preferences and select the "serial" gadget. I have both the
AMIGA and the paintjet set for XON/XOFF handshaking. (I tried No handshake too)


So I figured I must be doing something wrong.

Thanks for any help,

Dave S.
