Bob, I recommend you use, if you can, laddiealpha on your working
windows box?
Nadsbox should work, works for me.
You do need to be sure that the visible directory has the correct file
name visible.
TSD100.BX is the correct image file name for TS-DOS.

I was successful in getting RXCINI.DO into my M100 using mComm on a
Win XP laptop with a real serial port.____
Ran RXCINI just fine and got RXCMGR installed. The problem all
along was the Dell “legacy port replicator”. Clearly the Dell
implementation of a serial port emulation was flawed.____
__ __
Now using RXCMGR, I am trying to load OptROM images (*.BR) from the
root directory of my NADSBox. For example, I chose F2 to LOAD an
OptROM image, type in the filename (ex: TSD100) and NADSBox is
connected, but I always get the same error “File name error”. I
know the .BR files for various OptROMs are there on the NADSBox SD
card, so I appear to be stumped again.____
__ __
Are there differently named OptROM images intended for use with
RXCMGR?____

Steve,____
I’ve had enough for today. I’ll go at it again in a day or two. No
need to fret over this. I am sure I will get it one of these days.____

Hi Bob,____
my guess is that there are one of 2 things wrong.____
1) the socket has some loose connections or____
2) the 8 bit transfer didn't go as planned and there is
something amiss with RXCINI.DO____

I must say, I need to make my utilities more bulletproof. I

Hello all!____
____
Today I finally tried to install REXCPM in my M100. I have
not yet succeeded. Any suggestions would sure be
appreciated. Here is the scenario:____
____
Using a Null Modem cable, I transferred the RXCINI.DO file
carefully to the M100. I used 1200baud with TeraTerm on my
Dell Win10 laptop, 8 bits, etc. My Dell Win10 machine came
with a Dell external device that provides supports legacy
ports via USB cable to an external box with physical serial,
parallel, Ethernet, and USB connections. ____
____
The transfer was successful and I looked at the lines of
code in the .DO file and compared to a screen listing of
RXCINI (used Notepad). All good.____
____
I connect my NADSbox with RXC_11.BR <http://RXC_11.BR> AND
RXCINI.DO In the root directory and using the cable that I
have always used with my NADSbox. Then I start through the
steps found onthe Bitchin100 page:____
http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=REXCPM____
____
I at step 4, I select Yes to both options, and Y to proceed.____
I see a line on my screen that shows dots appearing:____
Loading at: 62000 <…………………….____
..____
Note that I see only two dots on the last line then the
screen goes off with the M100 powered off. When I turn it
back on, it is apparent that a cold start has occurred.____
____
I have repeated all the steps carefully at least 4 times
(Cold started M100, transfer RXCINI.DO, RUN”RXCINI”. I
never get to step 6. The result is always the same.____
____
I am pretty sure that my transfer of RXCINI.DO is not
corrupted.____
____
Any suggestions?____
____
Thanks in advance,____
Bob____
