If you use the Control Window supplied with the latest Meridian config software (instead of Windows Hyperterminal), you receive unambiguous feedback (e.g. an "Entering maintenance mode" message or similar).

Select the "Command" tab. Enter the commands in the bottom left window and hit enter (or press the send button). If your connection is working, you will know.

Good luck!

From memory, when I first did this I experienced the same thing, having trouble getting Hyperterminal to connect.
I used "regular" control commands (play etc) over Hyperterminal to find a way I knew worked (you'll see immediate results), then put the player in standby to proceed with hte codefree process.

Well, I now have it working and thanks to the many who assisted. It seems that the USB to serial connecting cable was the cause with the receiving side working but unable to send information to the device. Once the new cable was installed, the software worked very simply and easily.

Thanks to all.
