Hi.  ive read all the posts from this year but cant seem to find the
right answer.  i get the following message when i start to download:

6811 .s19 file downloader.  Version 7.2  Mar 14 1994  by Randy Sargent
Using the modem port.

Please place board in download mode and press RETURN
To quit, press Q
For help, press H
Downloading 256 byte bootstrap (229 data)

Timeout on serial receive.  256 chars left to receive
Perhaps the board was not connected properly or not in download mode

Please place board in download mode and press RETURN
To quit, press Q
For help, press H

and we have tried almost everything.  replace every part of the cabeling.
replace the serial interfaces, and replace the actual handy board (we are
building five simultaneously).
i have edited the resource to change the download file to pcode_hb.s19 and
have tried to DLM the config file and the bootstrap program and nothing
seems to work.  i also re-downloaded the software again.
the funny part is, it worked the second time (the first time it said to
configure the register, and i did) i ever tried it, but not since.

one other thing.  the first time that it worked, my LCD screen said
Halted (some hex address)
Ver *.*  (2.81 i think)

but it hasnt worked since on two different boards and interfaces.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.  thanks in advace.
tg
