I took a power surge the other day which wiped out my computer. I’ve replaced the computer, but it and the K3S are not talking now.
I’ve made sure RS232 is configured to USB, tried a couple of different USB ports on the PC (which I know are good since they will recognize a flash drive), as well as different USB cables. The device manager list shows two Com Ports: Communications Port (Com1) Intel Active Management Technology - SOL (Com3) Nothing changes when I plug in the USB Cable from the K3 and the K3 Utility cannot find either Port. My gut feel is that there is something wrong on the PC end since the K3 had no problem communicating with the old PC. But I’d like to prove that. Is there some way I can test out the K3 USB? Unfortunately the PC does not have a RS232 connector so I can try that as an alternative. I updated the PC COM drivers but that made no difference. Or perhaps one of you computer guru’s can tell me how to check out the computer COM ports. Any help would be gratefully accepted!
