LK204-7T-1U Not sending key presses RS232

Using an oscilloscope, I have determined that the TX pin of the LK204-7T-1U does not output characters when buttons are pressed.

I am using the LCD with a PIC16F877A microcontroller. I know I am sending commands to the LCD from the microcontroller, and I am setting auto-transmit key presses on, however no matter what I do, the TX pin of the LCD remains at a constant 5V.

Any suggestions? There doesn't seem to be any command used to enable key presses or anything....

When you query the unit for its module ID (see manual for specific command) does it respond ?
