This is very inconvenient , because turning the console off or disconnecting the RS232 wire brings the system down. I tried to connect few pins on the RS232 cable but without success. How can i disable the brk signal (by software or hardware )? Thanks in advance Tom. Gorodecki Tom. National Semiconductor (IC) 6 Maskit st.
