Which /dev device is the sled serial port connected to?
/dev/ttyS1
Quote:
All attempts I have made to see the device I have connected have failed dismally. It does not need any DTR/RTS/CTS signals (The PC side of the cable has RTS/CTS/DTR tied to ground. The device is working fine on my laptop.
Try installing telnetd from here http://www.trejan.com/projects/empeg/#EMPTELNETD
Then telnetting into the Empeg, killing off the player processes and then talking to the serial port.

Also are the RX/TX pins of this port crossed over or not?
The FAQ shows RD on serial port pin 2 and TD on serial port pin 3. Mark Lords dock is wired the same way. ISTR that the car sled has RD on pin 3 and TD on pin 2 - bit I could be wrong about this.

Is any special configuration needed to stop the player software trying to use the sled port for anything? I have hijack suppress_notify=1
There is a setting in the Hijack menu. Go into "Serial Port Assignment" and set to "Apps Use Serial Port". This setting only applies when the player is in DC/Car mode - you could use the hijack "Force AD/DC Power Mode" setting to help you investigate.
