Hi,

I'm using the RF-ANET VER1.01 and the drivers from Silicon Labs on my XPSP3 box without issue. Can you see the USB bridge in Device Manager?

K, so what's the config s/w you refer to? The only one I know of is RF-ANET.   LMK.

Thats the code that locks up. APC220.exe // RF-ANET.

Shows something found in port 3, but all I get is an hour glass.

Hmmm... Is APC220.exe stable without the APC220 plugged in? Anything in the XP event log? I think the only time I've had issues is when unplugging the radio with the RF-ANET software open. Also, what is on com3?

Its the bridge. I just unplugged it (with out the APC220) and the WIN7 bluescreened.

I'll try the XP net book again later.

 

I am off to buy a radio. The one ordered3 weeks ago still has not arrived.

Got an FTDI cable to test with instead of the stock adapter?

Unfortunately no.

I was thinking of writing a loop back program to see if it actually runs.

Send a letter "A", and then check to see if it arrives in the input buffer.

Ok. I wrote a simple loop back program and can send chars from one text box to another.

The bridge is functioning in Win 7. That leaves the APC transiever.

 

Ok. Dont unplug it from the USB port. Blue screen awaits

Does this system require that both units be powered up to function?
