Re: Unable to Assign ID to Jaguar with BD-COMM

Hi, another update.

We verified our adapter's pinout again, and it still looks good.
We also swapped to our other black jag and that's also not working.
Both jags display a solid yellow light until BD-COMM tries to do anything.
We bought a Serial to USB convertor, in suspicion that our serial port was not working, but that does not fix anything.
And we also verified that using a non-reversed 6 pin cable does not work. When we reset the jag, the light turns red and green for a split second, then goes back to flashing.

Any other recommendations?

Update: We used the wire as it came directly to the serial port and it works! I think the reversed cable is for the cRIO. Thanks for the help!
