1. The problem with the serial cable

① The serial cable is not properly connected. (See page 17)

②The serial cable you are using is not provided by us. (The Plusdeck2c uses 1:1

direct communication. The crossly connected serial cable will not work with the

Plusdeck2c.)

③ The pin in the serial cable has been bent.

2. The problem with the serial port

①The serial port is already in use by other device.

- Other program (including previously installed program) may be blocking the

serial port. This program must be removed.

②The serial port is set to disable at the BIOS setup.

- Change the setting to auto or enable.

3. Others

① When there is no power supplied

② When multiple Plusdeck2c software’s were launched

③ When the serial port has gone bad

Software will not run

Problem / Solution

If the serial port is not available or out of order, a PCI

RS232 expansion card can be used to make an additional

serial port. An unknown serial port problem may go

away if you use a PCI RS232 card.
