OK,
Comm1 is set to 9600,8,n,1 - flow control none, FIFO is disabled on my
laptop. I restarted the laptop, shut done the MP 120. With a fresh
instance of XP running I fired up NCU and made sure that Comm1 was
selected. The laptop and the Newton are connected already. I turned on
the MP 120 and tapped extras, tapped connection, made sure that "Serial
9600 - Windows" was selected, then tapped connect. It blips it's
obligatory 4 times and even though I crossed my fingers, I get the same
ole' "The connection was stopped because there was no response."
problem.
I have always hated the serial protocol, and I only think that quietly!
Thanks by the way for helping me, this is really annoying.
Regards,
Paul Curtis

Okay, so we know that when you try to connect from the newt, RX blinks
and
when you send from HT, TX blinks. That sounds exactly correct. You most
likely have a good physical connection. You can always try to connect
from
the newt and see what comes up in HT, but it is pretty academic at this
point.
Shut down HT and bring up the NCU and check your port settings. Make
sure
you are using COM1. By the way, turn off the FIFOs on the serial port if
you can. Try to connect.
