No, DIGI_NED sends some data to the TNC to switch it to KISS. It looks 
like the TNC doesn't interpret the commands to switch to KISS but instead 
transmits them...

Maybe you can switch the TNC to KISS manualy before starting the floppy to 
see if that helps.

In the directory KISS you will find a KISS_DNN.INI, this contains the 
commands which are send to the TNC to switch it to KISS. Aparently it 
doesn't send the right command for your TNC. Just change it with a text 
editor.

Oh, that's easy, just erase "dnconfig.bat" in the root of the floppy. This 
batch just sets an environment value which is used by "run.bat" in the 
digi_ned directory.

Kind regards,

Henk.
