MSLutil

[Adrian McClatchie]

Hi,
I have an MSL5026 with DLT8000 drives and i cannot connect to the controller thru the serial port with MSLutil. I know Serial POrt and cable are okay, as I can connect to the fibre controller with HyperTerminal.
Any suggestions?

Adriam.
The NSR and the MSL have the same connector but they are wired differently. See the attached file for the MSL pinout. See also
