it came today! so i take it out of the box plug it into power the screen comes on and it has the splash screen like it's supposed to. so i hook up my homemade cable and try to run lcdc it says it can't open com1 so i try com2, nothing. i think, well i'll try MO's software still nothing... so i go to radioshack and pick up a DB9 extention cable and plug it in. still nothing!!! is there something i'm doing wrong? thanks
try the Alpha Demo with the display.... make sure all other programs that may use the serial port are off... then do a manual override on the display (see manual) and try again.
the alph demo won't let me choose a port, it tries to open port 5 on startup. is there a file that i can delete that will remove port 5 as the prefrance. i tried uninstalling and re-instlling but that didn't work.
