Hi Ed, Initially I felt that was the case, but after some brief RS-232 measurement and the ability to see the TX/RX LED radio buttons sync with TX and RX data on the serial activity Monitor at the bottom left corner, there is nothing wrong with the RS-232 lines.
Does anyone have a later version of the Trimble Thunderbolt monitor program or any other thoughts?

A fault with pin 3 on the DE9 would do it, or something deeper that kills the pc-to-tbolt comms.

While re-arrangement of the shack, it's been idle for 3 weeks, Tbolt turned off. After turning the unit on and letting it settle some 2 hour, I connected the monitor program and found the following that I can not explain and correct:- * All SV and AMU have question marks * Product info has questions marks * the ability to see tracking status is blank. When last used, some 2 months ago to show a friend, the relevant display data came up, no issues. Further more, position, critical and minor alarms are green, disciplining status section such as DAC voltage DAC value mode and even it's 10MHz out etc etc is fine compared to my trusty Rubidium standard. Has any one seen this before and is there a setting that may have inhibited this feature? I have a screen shot, however it may be to large to attach, so let me know if this will help, I will be glad to forward it to some one with much more knowledge. Thank you in advance.
