Ok so my adapter came today. At first i hooked it up to my laptop and desktop and they both said device not recognised. I thought here we go again. Anyway i decided to try the usb cable that came...
I think i am going to try the original board seeing as people seem to have good luck with that one.
Update: Well i just bought the original adapter from page one and it looks like shipping is...
I tried my cable today but no luck. The rx light blinks when i hit connect but nothing else happens. I also tried win aldl which didnt work.
Correct me if i am wrong but one wire should be connected to ground on the board and one wire connected to the tx and rx pins. You connect the ground wire to terminal (A) on the aldl connector from...
Ok so i inverted the tx and rx pins. Some promising news. When i hook up to tuner pro it still fails the cable test but now the red rx light lights up along with the green tx light. The same for aldl...
Do you think the best move at this point would be to buy a new chip?
Looking close at my board today i noticed some pins on the ftdi chip are soldered together pins 4&5 and 7&8 from the top down. Is this normal or is this a mistake? so i tried hyperterminal on a...
How would i test to see if the recieve side is seeing what is transmitting? My ft232rl looks like the same one you use. I noticed that the numbers on my ftdi chip differ from the numbers on the ftdi...
I am excited to start data logging. Is their a definitive way to test for a bad board.
I will recheck with my volt meter but i think the tx/rx output 5 volts. Idk if that matters any im just thinking if it outputs 5v and you touch it to its 5v supply would anything happen. Also i...
Ok so using hyperterminal only the tx light lights up when i type whatever on the keyboard. I have the tx and rx hooked together. When i touch the wire from the tx/rx to 5v no lights light up.
Ok so i tried that driver and still no luck. When i do the cable test on tuner pro the tx light lights up for a split second. If i take the ground wire and the tx rx wire and rub them together the tx...
i would like to try that driver. does my setup look ok. tie rx and tx together. then one ground.
whenever i test the cable on tunerpro it tests it at 8192 baud. how can i get it to test at 160 baud? I also tried winaldl and that does not work either. win aldl says com4 ok and it is set to 4800...
ok so i am using the newest driver from january 2014. i am going to downgrade drivers under marks suggestion. i have the ground to pin a and the tx rx to pin e. i hope the driver is the issue. i will...
ok so i received my ft232rl today and soldered up one wire to the tx and rx and another wire to the ground. i cannot get the cable to work with winaldl or tunerpro rt. i tried doing cable tests and...
I believe this should work? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=231227363471&alt=web
is thier a cheap simple ft232rl that i can use with my 1227747 ecu that ships from the us instead of from china with their crazy shipping times?
