I'm trying to get Rivendell to look at a stream of serial data from a satellite 
receiver and am running into intermittent issues.  


If I bring up minicom, I can see the strings come through without a problem.  
Occasionally, I am able to get the carts to fire off correctly with Rivendell 
based on serial port strings.  Serial ports are working in that I have a 
switcher on the computer that works fine through Rivendell.  


Here is what I am doing:

1. Configure Serial Port 1 in RDadmin:

Serial Port 1:  /dev/ttyS1  

Configured 9600, N81

2. Perform Insert to watch for string "#U12@":
SI 1 54114 #U12@!   


3. Set cart 54114 to log the event into a file:
(Tested, and working).

When I watch the logs, can see the test that I run but cannot always see the 
serial traffic.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.  I am just not sure 
what sequence of activities I run that make it work versus not.  


Is there a way to better troublehshoot how Rivendell works with Serial Traps?

Is there an initialization sequence that I am missing?

Thanks in advance.
Brian
