My experience is 6 years out of date, but as I recall the IACs really badly wanted ALL the hardware protocols implented. If your cables are not using pins 1 through 8 and 20, you'll probably have trouble. Are you running custom programs setting the values at run-time? If not, are you setting the DEFAULT characteristics from the console? I don't remember the details, just that there is a difference between setting the char's for the current session, vs. as default...
