Well done Paul, you are right, mine was NOT a null modem cable...

Thanks for that.

Brian,

I suggest you make sure the serial cable is correct first. It's a
cross-over
(null modem) cable, not a straight-through cable.

Echo and LF shouldn't stop you from receiving the information the MV1000
sends down the serial when it first boots.
