If this part of the test fails reporting:
Transmit/Receive Test: Fail Tx=0h Rx=Timeout
a.) Make sure that your cables are good.
b.) Make sure that you have a MIDI cable connected between the
MIDI In of the Portman and the MIDI Out. Your MIDI instru-
ments should not be connected for this test. It is a closed loop
test with one MIDI cable connected between the MIDI jacks of
the Portman.
3. Internal Buffer Test
Your Portman PC/S should never fail the Internal Buffer Test. This
test checks the Portman’s ability to handle the flow of data through
it’s circuit, and if it fails, probably indicates a bad chip in the
Portman.
If you think this is the case, please contact MIDIMAN Product
Support.
4. Receive Interrupt Test
This test checks the reception of data from the Portman into the
computer’s serial port. This test, like the buffer test, should never
fail. If it does, there are a few things to check.
If your computer has an internal modem or a serial type mouse,
check which port it is using and run PCSDIAG.EXE specifying the
other port. If your computer has
both an internal modem and a
serial mouse, you have to disable one of them in order to use the
PC/S.
