whey are you using 3400 as a speed?
the standard speeds should be 4800, or for later units 38400

I am sending you a pm/u2u with link to unzipped v3 sw


I've tried 4800 as well with the same result. I also tried with no speed specified at all, same result. It seems that it can't open the serial port to start with which I don't really understand.

I'm aiming to try and update it to 2.5.0 controller firmware which would then allow me to use V3.0 configuration SW, as below-

V 2.5 firmware / V3.0 configuration software
PC Configuration/Tuning software, version 3.0.0

Controller Firmware, version 2.5.0 (right-click / save)

I have seen some computers (Laptops) that have different com port hardware.
What might be worth checking, is the com port, what I would call a real one.

This can be checked in the device manager.
>ports(COM & LPT)
communication Port (COM1)

Resources should be something like I/O Range 03F8 - 03FF.

Yes, that's what mine says.
Did the loopback test to Hyperterminal earlier to prove port and lead again, all OK.

I've had to draw the line on this one as I'm still unable to connect. A mate who's good with this sort of stuff also had a go with his laptop and lead with no success. The ebay seller has eventually agreed to a partial refund as I kept the EDIs unit.
I've got a working unit from AdrianH off here and should have it all up and running soon
