external device b) Is the external device connected with the proper RS-232 cable? Check the

configuration of the external device’s RS-232 port. The DAB1’s RS-232 pin

configuration is:

PPiinn 22 == RReecceeiivvee ((RRxx)),, ppiinn 33 == TTrraannssmmiitt ((TTxx)),, PPiinn 55 == GGrroouunndd ((GGnndd)).

c) Are the ‘baud rate’ and ‘format’ of the external device properly configured?

See page 40.

d) Is the external device properly configured to send/receive?

e) Are the ASCII text serial commands programmed in Sonance Control

Manager correct? See pages 43 – 44.

f) If using Hex commands, be sure the Macro Editor screen’s HEX MODE button

is pressed before inputting the Hex command. See page 43.

g) If the DAB1 is being serial-controlled by the external device, make sure that

all DAB1 macros are purged of all RS-232 commands. See page 53.
