[time-nuts] Nortel Trimble thunderbolt

[MailLists]

The cable is a straight DTE-DCE one. BR is 9600 (8O1).
The yellow LED won't go off until it's communicating with the base 
station through the rear 110-pin connector.
Is it connected to an on board COM or through an USB adapter?
On COM1 LH 3.10 starts straight without any command line switches or 
other fiddlings (just a warning message about "no COM1 data seen", which 
disappears quickly).
