This is my 4th question regarding RS232 base device.
Now i have a manual with me which says use 3 wire interface mean
TX pin 3
RX Pin 2
Ground pin 5
and send ASCII command V? with line feed you will get responce from Device.
I am sending this command by usng MSCOMM
comm.output="V?" & vbCr
After sending this command i am just getting
comm.CommEven=1
error nothing else
and long sleep

What else does your manual say?

My advice is still to use HyperTerm. It will allow you to output characters without redoing your program.
