Hey guys it's been a couple years since I've been here and I'm trying to hook up my receiver to a laptop. I have the adapter, put in the software, it recognizes the com port and my receiver goes from boot mode, a CW600P, to displaying E026 but the bar graph on the loader doesn't do anything. I'm guessing I don't have a setting correct in my device drivers, have any suggestions? Thanks
usb to serial is the hardest thing to connect Please follow the instructions below to set the right COM port:
Setup Instructions
STEP 1: Install the Software
First, download and install the driver for your version of Windows Note: there are separate drivers for Windows XP and Windows Vista
