I don't think it's a problem with the jack screws, as they back out
completely into the housing, and I can plug in the cable all the way to my
computer and KIO2 board.
My biggest concern is that P4-7 on the control board is putting out 0 V.
From the troubleshooting section of the KIO2
Ok, I checked out the voltages on the control board to see if that might
shed some light on anything. (See page 15, Appendix E, Troubleshooting in
K2 manual)
Q12-E: 4V (not 6)
Q12-B: 4.5V (not 7)
U2-1, 2, 3: 4.07V (not 6.9)
U2-5, 6, 7: 4.5V (not 7.3)
U6-24: 0V (not 5)
U6-25: 5V (not 0)
Jason,
Nothing in that list is truely abnormal, and they are certainly not
associated with anything that flows through the KIO2. You should be looking
elsewhere for the source of your problem.
Are you certain that the PORT parameter in the menu is set to ON.

Thanks for the time looking at this everyone. I was just worried about P4-7
because the manual says there should be 4.5 V there. I do not have KSB2,
tho.
Yes, the port menu item is on.
I'll look at the KIO2 and AUX boards a little more closely. My computer
hasn't got any serial ports, so
Jason,
Do you have the computer port set correctly? 4800 baud, 8 data bits, no
parity, 1 or 2 stop bits, handshaking set off (none).
Some USB to serial port adapters have caused problems with some pieces of
control software. Can you use a different computer with a real serial port
(or a
I have the port settings set up exactly as you said. I thought about taking
it to work next week where my computer has a real serial port, I'll report
back then on how it goes.

I had to remove the jack screws from the connectors to make a solid
connection. They wouldn't allow the connectors to mate deep enough.
