Thanks for the info,

I tried setting the environment variable (running Win 95) RCXTTY=com4
without much effect.  I did get frmdl3.exe to send out to com4 with the
following:  frmdl3.exe --tty=com4 legOS.srec

However, dll.exe still won't send via com4.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

The easiest way is to set the environment variable RCXTTY to the com port you want to use. Type the command set RCXTTY=com4 before you run firmdl3 or dll, or add the line to autoexec.bat Cheers Philip -----Original Message----- From: David Chen (...)
