    50 Papywizard can't correctly comunicate with the head. Solutions:
     50Papywizard can't correctly communicate with the head. Solutions:
    5151
    5252 * check if the head is switched on
    5353 * if using serial driver, be sure to use the correct port
    5454 * if using a bluetooth-to-serial converter, don't forget to configure its baudrate to 9600 for the Merlin/Orion head
     55
     56If it still don't work, do the following steps:
     57
     58 * connect your RS2S2-TTL interface to the Merlin/Orion head and the original remote controller
     59 * launch '''hyperterminal''' on the PC (either via serial link, or using a BT converter)¹
     60 * configure a new connexion with params 9600-8N1. Then open the "File > Properties" dialog. In the "Parameters" tab, click on the "ASCII Configuration" button, and activate the first switch of the "ASCII Receive" part ("Add end of line at each new input line", or something like that)
     61 * launch the connexion
     62 * switch on the Merlin/Orion head
     63
     64''¹ Under linux, just start '''minicom'''.''
     65
     66You should see the communication:
     67
     68{{{
     69:F1

     82=F90600
     83}}}
     84
     85If you don't, then there is a at least a problem on the receive sens. Check the cable between the head and the interface. Once you can see the dialog, try again with Papywizard. If it still does not work, then the problem is on the sending sens. Check again the cable!
