  • Garbled characters in the terminal sounds like a wrong baudrate has been set. Did you ever see the remote control menu with that board, or was this your first attempt to connect to it?

  • im sorry for my brief explanation, board was always working, i was always able to access the remote control menu with the terminal setup at the correct baud rate, this is when the board worked, but from day one the board always took like 5 minutes to startup, once i got it to start up it will work fine, i could shut it off and back o with no problems, but yesterday i tried to turn it on and i only got a blinking power led, and blinking status led, i could no get it to boot up, thats when i tried the Terminal and it will only show garbled caracters, it will not show the normal Remote Control Menu...;(
