What do I do if serialtest hangs?
Make sure the interface is seated correctly and tighten the screw that holds
the interface in place. Also, make sure the cables are attached to the correct
ports. In some cases,
serialtest hangs if the transceiver modes
(PCI-485) are not set. Try setting both transmit and receive ports to
transceiver mode 0 (Four-Wire Mode).
