Hi, I try to turn a display on and off by RS232-commands. The documentation of this display says, that I have to send "^¡" and "]¢" (ASCII-coded) in order to control it. I added these commands in Bright Author the same way, it is shown in your Video: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.brightsign.biz/tutorials.php#serialcontrols">http://www.brightsign.biz/tutorials.php#serialcontrols</a><!-- m --> The problem: The display does not turn on and off. I tried connecting the display with the computer and sending the commands with a terminal - that works. Then I tried connecting my BrightSign 1010 with the computer - the player does not send any of the commands I "told him to". But, when I restart the player I get cryptic characters:
