Microtech Software and Serial to USB Adapter Issue
Wasn't sure where to post this one, I'm trying to connect my interceptor to my laptop via a usb to serial adapter, i set the adapter up, and set it to Com 1, but the software still can't seem to communicate to it. It trys to lock on for a moment and then throws a error code.
does it matter where the microtech serial laptop adapter is plugged into the chain of cables? Any thoughts? |
It should be OK as long as it is between the adapter and the unit.
You might want to try and uninstall the driver and re-install it..or change to a different COM port. Your laptop may have conflicts on COM1 I have huge problems with mine when i run GPS with the Scanalyser.....different ports but the adapter software that drive the different serial-USB adapters can't co-exist at the same time. I usually have to remove one to get it to work :( |
i'm not running any other serial devices on this laptop, i un installed any other usb devices and re installed the drivers. hopefully this will help.

I bet you need to pick COM5 if you can. Do you know how to change the COM ports setting for the USB adaptor? It can be done.
|
I do, but I'm not sure if the MT software can use COM5
|
Did you get it working??
|
yup, a simple switch of converters worked, thanks for the help guys
