My EFIS D10A functions just fine. However when I attempt to communicate with the unit using my laptop, I get an "Upload Aborted" message stating error connecting to instrument: "Can't find instrument on any serial port. Please close any programs which may be using a comm or serial port"
I have tried three different laptop computers. Two of the computers do not have a serial port connector so I used a USB to Serial adapter. The Radio Shack adapter driver has been installed and it works when I download graphic engine data from my JPI 700 instrument, so I believe the USB to serial adapter cable is OK. The third laptop computer that I tried has a serial port which I connected direcdtly to the D10A serial cable. The same error message appeared. I have no other devices connected or running when I try to connect to the D10A. Would appreciate any ideas from anyone who has experienced this problem or any other advice you may offer. Thanks Gobyrd1.
