Hi,

I bought one of those cheap cables from ebay, until i get the money for the real one. I installed the program. I installed the drivers.

I have software 409. Now i ran into some problems. I have the impression that i do somthing wrong. On COM 3 the program display the follow message

Port Status: OK
Interface: Found
Type: Serial pass Through
Opto/Iso: No
Ross Tech design: No

So help would be appreciated.

 

who did you buy it from?

 

it should look like this if the cable isn't plugged into your car




try switching it to COM 4 instead of COM 3 and it should fix it

 

I bought the cable ffrom szhid.

When i select the USB I have a message with Interface not found. Its something with the conection.


Do i have to buy the program from ross tech in order to make this work? I only DL the program from them.

 

I would buy the program in order to make this work. But i need to be sure that this cable will work on the car before i activate the program.

 

did you try switching it to COM 4?

 

yeah, no results

Is there a way to see(test) those COM ports somwhere?

 

Try using version 311.2. Also make sure that your COM ports 3 and/or 4 are actually open and available.

 

how do i chack that?

 

In my device manager i can only in the Ports section only COM1 and LPT1...this means that i have no other ports availble?
