As I said in the initial post, I tested it with a modem booting from a floppy, and it tested fine, so the serial port isn't faulty (thankfully!). It's actually a Sola UPS, and I had it working previously with NUT on my old mail server which has now been retired. The "Q1" command is what I normally need to type in Minicom to get it to respond, but this isn't working. Thanks for the response though.
