Look at the top of the BCD Comm box for the current board ID NOT the assign box.
Thanks for the speedy response!

The jag light was remaining solid after we pressed the assign button.

Also, although the jag's LED was solid yellow, there were no board IDs listed in BDC Comm.

Also, we had to force the computer to set the jaguar to Com port 1, otherwise, BDC Comm wouldn't even acknowledge that there was another Com port present.

The black jag was the only one on the network at the time, and attempting to daisy chain through to a tan jag yielded no communications on the tan jag.
