Title: Mikohn DCU communication problem Post by: plowboy77 on July 09, 2010, 05:14:23 PM We have these under every linked progressive bank. When we try to read progressive reset values and incrementation rates we get a Could not check controller version. Using super link light ver. 1.74. We were able to read about a month ago. But something happened. We are using the rs232 port to a 8p8c jumper someone made. Pin 5 to Pin 6: Pin 3 to Pin 5: Pin 2 to Pin 4. That small jumper is hooked up to a straight wired rs232 jumper. We had a tech transfer files to make both our laptops the same recently. Not sure if any files got corrupted. I don't think they would. Any thoughts or suggestions? I'm new to all of this and don't have a clue.
Thanks. Title: Re: Mikohn DCU communication problem Post by: Dneo on October 01, 2010, 04:43:53 PM yo tengo el mismo problema, lo pudiste solucionar?

On the older Mikon software and in particular to the the RS232 connection - we need to modify the 9pin serial cable. You obviously cannot do this with a USB cable but you connect a 9pin Rs232 to the end of the USB 9pin connector and modify that. Here is a link to a post that contains the PDF on exactly what to modify. http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=106.0 (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=106.0) Title: Re: Mikohn DCU communication problem Post by: TZtech on January 02, 2014, 07:29:17 AM This is what I have in my manuals
