Hello all from New Zealand,

I have purchased a TS-7200 which I want to use as a data logger for a
weather station (via serial).

I'm a relative Linux newbie and I'm trying to get the TS-SER1 serial
port working. After reading the post
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ts-7000/message/597 I have done the
following

Connected a RC-DB9 cable to the TS-SER1 with the red strip against the
white dot.

I have set the jumpers on the TS-SER1 to IRQ6 and COM3.

At power on time I see

Off-board serial at: COM3

and in the dmesg I see

ttyAM0 at MMIO 0x808c0000 (irq = 52) is a AMBA
ttyAM1 at MMIO 0x808d0000 (irq = 54) is a AMBA
ttyAM2 at MMIO 0x808e0000 (irq = 55) is a AMBA
pty: 1024 Unix98 ptys configured
Serial driver version 5.05c (2001-07-08) with MANY_PORTS SHARE_IRQ
enabled
ttyS02 at 0x89c003e8 (irq = 40) is a 16550A

I have used setserial to change the irq to 33, and a display shows the
following

$ setserial -a /dev/tts/2
/dev/tts/2, Line 2, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x89c003e8, IRQ: 33
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test
        
However, if I try to use the port, it opens alright, but I cant read
or write from it.

My test involves connecting COM2 on the TS-7200 to a PC running
hyperterm, and copying some test to it via "cp test.txt /dev/ttyAM1".
My test file appears on the screen.  I then swap to the COM3 port on
the TS-7200 and change the command to "cp test.txt /dev/ttyAM2".
Nothing appears on the screen.

My second test involved writing a short program to write some test to
the port. The result is the same, it works on COM2, but not on COM3

What am I missing?

Kind regards
Andrew
