Can I test to see if data is being sent out?
Yes. With a TCP/IP connection, open hyperterminal on the SS32 machine, fill in the IP address and the port that the SS32 is using, then connect. In the SS32>Options>Configuration>Nowplaying, click on Send Sample. Data should now appear in the hyperterminal window. With a serial connection you will need to connect a second computer serially and open hyperterminal on the second computer, selecting serial connection, and the com port you are connected to.
