Jack this is more than likely a conflict in com ports. Open your windows device manager, find the flex control com port and assign it a com port way out of range of the others.. like com 60 or something like that. Then give it a try and see if it gets consistent.

I need some help. I have a 6700 w/flexcontrol. My startup procedure may be the problem. I turn on the pc, wait a few seconds, then the 6700.After they settle down, I start SmartSDR. I select the 6700, and hit "connect. Here is the problem. The FlexControl will not work. I can go to Settings, select FlexControl, and the screen is dark. However, if I unplug the FC from the pc, and then plug it back it, it works fine. This happens every time. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.Jack K5FSE _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz To opt out of the Reflector: http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz To opt out of the Reflector: http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz
