Cause and/or Suggested Remedy:

problem. Check to see that the node address and
baud rate defined on the Communications Setup
Menu are correct. Also check to see that the port
in the ACCOL load is set up correctly, and that
you are plugged into the correct port on the node.
If communications had been working correctly,
and have now failed (without any configuration
changes) check to see that the cable is not loose or
unplugged. If this occurred immediately after a
download, see the first question on the first page
of this table.
The download information cannot be sent to the
unit. Check to see that the port you are plugged
into can accept a download, i.e. it is a Slave Port,
and has the required baud rate configured.
The download has been interrupted. Check to see
that the cable is plugged in correctly, and that the
port and baud rate have been correctly configured.
This is a possible indication of an invalid
hardware configuration or improper memory
configuration. It can occur, for example, if you try
to download a 186-based ACCOL load into a 386-
based unit, or vice versa. Check to see what type
of unit you have, and make sure that it matches
the target node type of the load you want to use.
This indicates that there is a discrepancy between
the ACCOL load running in the unit, and the
.ACO/ACL files on the hard disk of your PC. You
may need to re-link and re-download the unit to
clear up this problem.
