      It’s about 75ft.  It worked over a similar distance (with the same cables) previously.

      What’s the total distance for the 9pin?

      Recently I helped a customer move their machine room and edit systems.  It all went well, except for one system which will not do deck control – although it did before the move.

       

      I’ve hooked up dozens of these over the years but I am stumped.

       

      System is a Win7 HPz440 running Media Composer 8.4.something.  I have tried 3 different USB to Serial adapters, 2 Rosetta Stone cables, temp cabling to the machine room and bypassing the machine control patch panel.  I am also into a USB2 port since I have found they don’t work on USB3.

       

      So probably not hardware. 

       

      On the software side I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Keyspan software, confirming it is the same version that other working systems are using.  I have also confirmed the same firmware.  I have tried various virtual ports, allocated in the Keyspan software.

       

      Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas appreciated.
