Dario 0 Posted June 25, 2009 The instructions say to press the "On line" button then to press the "Mode" button several times. When I press the "Mode" button all I see is a slight block flash from the left of the LCD and thats it. No numbers pop up or anything. I know the LCD is working because it says on line in the first line and when I press reset both lines work with the version and numbers displayed below. Is there any other way to figure out the baud rate and is there something wrong with my machine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenimes 42 Posted June 25, 2009 When you press the Online button- it should go to a screen that displays the X and Y readings for the origin. Mode button will not do anything unless the unit no longer says Online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenimes 42 Posted June 25, 2009 Try tapping it quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dario 0 Posted June 25, 2009 Tapping quickly didn't work. I set it up with one of the default baud rates as I figured this could easily be changed later. I attempted to cut the test file from SBE and it said waiting. I am working on my laptop so the battery died (Plug wasn't all the way in). Now the machines LCD just displays black blocks on the top line. Is there a way to remedy this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest sciondrgn Posted June 25, 2009 Yes it is. Manually slide the carriage off of the red buttons and then turn the unit back on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
