Greetings. I have recently acquired a very good condition PMX but am having issues with software connections. I have troubleshooted this with the Software Bisque forum and have had some basic advice, plus some PM advice from here, but am getting nowhere.
The issue relates to both trying to connect the mount with either a Mac book Pro and a Windows 7 lappie- both have the same error (213-)
I essence I can connect the mount ok, and it detects the driver (windows =MKS 5000 USB driver/ mac should have native driver) and detects the correct com port etc
Then it gives me the option to "home" which I say yes to as this is trying to set the mount up for the first time (well about the fifth time now!)
The mount slews then I get an error of communications timed out then the error =213 poor communication/connection automatically terminated.
This happens with both computers, it also happens with different USB cables, with or without a powered hub, in different USB ports on the same computer (either direct or via hub), with nothing else running but TheSkyX Pro and nothing else plugged in.
All the leads are secure.
I have tried with the daily build updates, and also deleting all the files off the lappie then re-installing from the disc.
I am waiting further advice from SB as I have posted again there but would appreciate anyone who has come across this on IIS who could help me out.
The Comm ports I have checked and there is no conflicts.
The software is up to date- all my OS are recent and valid.
What else can I do?
Thanks for any tips
Graham.
