After several rounds of troubleshooting I have my external floppy and SCSI ports fully functional again. Now it’s time to focus on the serial ports.
What are the preferred ways of thoroughly testing these on an SE/30? Is it possible to cable them together and test them in a loopback configuration via some software utility? Or should I just dig out an old modem (and hope it still works) to send some AT commands to it via ZTerm? If the latter, would receiving AT replies from the modem prove the port is fully functional, or is more thorough testing of some kind required to come to that conclusion?
Thanks in advance!
