If nothing appears on the screen, unplug the serial cable from the WS-16 module and
plug in the WS-16 RS232 Output Tester supplied with the unit. If the module is
functioning, the red light should flash every 5 seconds.
If the module is functioning but you still see nothing on the screen, the wrong serial port
may be selected. Try selecting Com 2 or another functioning serial port. You can see a
list of available ports in My Computer > System Properties > Device Manager > Ports.
