Here is the output of a terminal session with the unit. The "M" command returns status information.
The column marked in red gives the Rb signal level. According to the manual, the level on a warmed-up unit should be between 1V and 3.3V, corresponding to between 33 and A8 hex.
As you can see it is to low with this unit.
