Well, it's hard to say what the problem might be. Since you've got the green
LED going, you've probably got the cable wired correctly. And yes, it's 2400
baud, 1 start, 1 stop, 8 data, odd parity. Perhaps the packet isn't correct.
Here's a sample packet to send the remote control style command for "motor A
fwd". With the remote control commands you don't have to worry about return
info from the RCX.

good luck,

  Serial Comm with RCX
 
I am trying to connect my HP49 Calculator with the Mindstorms IR Tower, I thought I had got the protocols right, the Green LED lights when I send the packet but nothing else, no reply from the RCX. Am I missing something?. Protocol 2400 baud odd (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
