Dear all,

I am looking forward to integrating my dear old BS7000 system into the NL world.  I am a proud owner of a BLI, BLC (NL/ML Converter) and a Masterlink Gateway.  I had a nice BLGW, but it packed up on me (constant green flashing light and not connecting to network).  So I am trying to resurrect my MLGW.  The guide says I should be able to integrate this with my BLI, but have failed miserably.  The whole horizon of product integration lies in front of me, but I can't get over the first hurdle.

A few hints from you guys (and gals) would be good as I am dying to get stuck in.

I have the TCP Port set at 9000 on the BLI: 

And the MLGW (with port also set at 9000) seems to be happy to accept MLGW protocol connections on TCP...

Yet I am getting this error message in the logs...

2021-04-20T15:45:55.094252+01:00 bli server: MasterLink Gateway Protocol (26012): Channel not ready, retrying in 10 seconds
I suspect it is something bloody stoopid.  I'm a newbie but you got to start somewhere.
Thanks in anticipation
