Neither the "hello world"-demo nor the sample program runs on my computer. I follow the instructions and bring up the console tool(siocons), but then the siocons prompt (double -right arrow) doesn't appear. I press F3 whichs brings up the Auto[1]: prompt and enter the name of the batch file(in this case batch0). After pressing enter i receive the error message: BINARY WRITE: timeout ! auto commands all stop I have already checked the communication cable, the Pc and the TV, but the problem stayed always the same. I don't know what to do else, please help ! e-mail: d-twinz@gap.baynet.de Roman
