Once again a big thanks to all the great folks on this site that give of their time and knowledge and ask for nothing in return... I tip my hat to you all.
I have one production line that is all compacts and SLC 5/05 (ETHERNET) save for 2 hold out 5/04's. Some time ago I set up a 232 link between the last 05 and the first 04 using AIC+ adapters and 0 channels. The link has thus far been very very unstable. At least 75% of all MSGs fail on time out. I have kept traffic to an absolute minimum. 0 Channels are set to full duplex 19200. AIC+s are set to auto. Adapters are about 125 feet apart using good Belkin twist pair shield.
As always any help is greatly appreciated.
Jim
