Thank you hal for the reply.
I've tried some setting but not made the test very well...
With "rxdelay=0" the scan results seems a bit right: missed some devices but these ones are now in the right places (nearly all), sometimes it finds an "unknow".
With your "ocbus" the program run well and with very low dbox speed, cycles=200 in settings, the scan found almost all the devices in the right places.
What do you intend as "device also receives the data it sends", the converter or that ones are in the bus?
My 232/485 converter have the tx/rx always enable so I can set an echo function with a jumper (it was in this condition during the tests).
A question: why the dbox status windows shows that error lines (see previous attachment) without running the program, just at the dbox startup?
By the way, I've tried to boot the pc with a dos floppy and run the program: not works fine in this way too, I suppose the machine is too fast for this old program.
I try to do other tests in the next days...
