Tascam DV-D01U help

I will admit I am probably missing something dumb, but this location seems to provide nothing but headaches and I am at my wits end.
Finally convinced this school to upgrade from an old Axcess system to a new Netlinx. Everything is working as it should except the tascam dvd player which I seem to have zero control over, so it leads me to being something so dumb I have overlooked it 100 times.
None of the Send Strings are working. I see the TX light blink. I get notification the string was sent:
Line 413 (11:09:55):: String To [5001:4:1]-[$02,$3E,$53,$4B,$50,$63,$47,$30,$30,$32,$20,$20,$20,$20,$45,$38,]
Line 414 (11:09:55):: String To [5001:4:1]-[$03]
The string is defined in the constants
GOTK2_STR = "$02,$3E,$53,$4B,$50,$63,$47,$30,$30,$32,$20,$20,$20,$20,$45,$38,$03"
And in the program:
PUSH[TP,133] (* CALL TK2 TO PLAY MISSION 1 *)
{
ON[TP,133]
ON[TP,80] (* DVD PLAY BUTTON *)
SEND_STRING DVD,"GOTK2_STR"
SYSTEM_CALL [SWT] 'SWT9' (SWT,6, 9, 1) (* DVD TO TP *)
That is one example of code for this device.
What am I missing? I am sure it'll be double face palm worthy when I'm shown, this is just becoming one of those I need a fresh set of eyes moments. Thanks for taking a look.

If you have it under define_start, it needs to be moved to the online event for the comm port.
DATA_EVENT [DVD]
{
ONLINE:
{
WAIT 60
{
SEND_COMMAND DVD,'SET BAUD 9600,N,8,1 485 DISABLE'
SEND_COMMAND DVD,'HSOFF'
}
}
}
Check out the first 2 Qs in the forum faq:

BTW - you don't need the wait for the send_command in the online event but it won't hurt anything.
Thank you very much, I needed a fresh look. And thank you for the link, booked marked to remind me of the basic checks and for passing on in the future.
Glad you got it working.
