Are you having other issues with the launcher? Luckily you have three out there.....

The only thing that comes to mind is that that the launcher could have been
in the secret menu causing the miscommunication. Did you try and communicate with the launcher 
using gtkterm? Remember the serial program.

The serial port to select should be ttyUSB3 and the baud rate should be set to 
1200

Once connected issue a capital M to see the menu. If you see this then it's working if not,disconnect the power
and reconnect it. You should see the main menu loading.

let me know how it goes

Hello Pedro,

I switched AL from ALR06 to ALR05. But AMVERSEAS couldn't detect the launcher. So I had to switch it back. What could be the issue? When I switched back to the ALR06, it immediately worked. I tried sending a status message to ALR06, but only the first try I received 'M' in return. Other times were blank responses.

I'll try a different launcher tomorrow.

Thanks,
Patrick
