Now if you NMC is in a dead state you need to do the old pcsdl to the nmc to get it back.
Our strings were set, we never leave them at the defaults. It looks like the NMC is dead, just stays in the SDL state with the green RN/FL flashing and no other lights. I don't think the PC SDL will even begin to talk to it.... I don't know what versions the -n and -v options want put in, nothing is explained and nothing works. pcsdl -p2 -r57600 -vSD6.0.9 -vNA3.2.0 -nSDnm -nNAnm ^ I don't know what version it means by Operation Code Version, what exactly is Operation Code? Is tha existing code or the sdl file version and if it is the sdl version file how do you find the version, the file is named nm030200.sdl and there is no mention of it anywhere else. None of this is explained in the pdf files and I have found no reference in the only searchable list archiev available. Why is this all so cryptic and why is it not explained anywhere in available documentation. I have been reading PDF files for three days and have not once seen a pcsdl explanation other than just do it. Is it part of the pay us tech support money mentality to be able to do simple things? This is maddening and it just seems to get worse, now our HARC TC is totally unusable. J.

Well na is for the nac file and sd is for the sdl file. you can download them from the web. You have access to those. The nac file is the file which has a .nac extention so a nmc file will be something like ne040234.nac the sd file is the sdl file or the file with .sdl extention. Every manual of USR/3com has this info. Its new to you for you never dealt with anything other than comos. Download the manaul and read on pcsdl it will explain the same to you. krish

OK looks like those were backwards. pcsdl -p2 -r57600 -vSD3.2.0 -vNA6.0.9 -nSDnm -nNAnm That worked, but it just replied **Error** File I/O ERROR which I knew it would. Just a stuck in SDL mode 16MB 486 NMC card with the RN/FL flashing green forever and no way to get it out of that mode. Will DIP switches 7 through 10 allow some sort of reset to take place? DIP 5 doesn't do anything different up or down operational or with pcsdl. J.

I/O Error is an error between your pc and serial port. PUt the dip switch 5 and 6 in 'on' position on the nmc - as soon as you put the card in do not wait for it to boot, just start the pcsdl download. krish

OK I seem to have managed to get it to pcsdl the proper code to the NMC. It appears I was trying to put the wrong firmware on it initially and TCM was happy to do it, but pcsdl wasn't. I have been studying this thing for about 60 hours now and I still feel like a complete and total out of control idiot. J.
