Sometimes.....its good to walk away, come back and start over on the analysis. Cable pinouts were wrong. What threw me was that it 'appeared' to work on a diff target board, but I doubt what I was seeing was valid. But now all is well....and now I can get onto the real work! Thanks for the help, I do apprciate it. _________________________________________________________________ Click here for a FREE online computer virus scan from McAfee. http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963 -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
