   Good luck
   

Restart the phone.

You will need to reload the drivers and application. if the problem persists, there is a hardware fault.

The terminals use DR Dos as operative system. Anything you want to download to them normally has to be built into a hex file and you will need a cradle, a null modem cable and winhex or the old dos command called sendhex.exe.

Is it a pdt 3100, 3140 or 3146?

I can send you the operative system files if the terminal is a 3140 or 3146 or you can do a search on the web for LWP and UPD.

You need a cradle, a null modem cable, a pc running dos and the command rcvhex.exe which you can download from the net.

If you can get all this together, get back to me and I will give you full instructions on the process.
