I got my HP Tuners software and it had a nine pin adapter for the laptop,my laptop has the fifteen pin port,so bill at hp tuners told me to get a keyspan USA-19HS adapter so I can plug it into my usb instead. Well I got the adapter installed it and I still cannot get the truck to comunicate with the laptop,it says cable not connected at the bottom of the screen. Anyone know whats going on ?

 

Don't know anything about it- I just ponied up for the software thismorning. But I'm eager to fire it up.........

 

Lots of adapter users have the same problem,do a search on hpt form.Wait till you try log works

 

Thanks, I'll look into it.

 

Not sure but did you go to device manager and change your (com1) port settings. from 9600 to 115200 and advance recieve buffer to 8 and transmit buffer to 16? Maybe I'm way off...

 

I saw that @ hptuners .com and tried to adjust my settings but the screens they where showing and the ones I accessed looked totally different. I think I got the advance recieve buffer and transmit buffer done but I couldn't find the screen for the port settings? That might be my problem.

 

I got it figured out thanks to dc96819, he sent me a pm that lead me through the process of changing the right parameters in my laptop for the port settings,thanks alot dc96819!

 

If either of you guys care to post what you did exactly in our getting started section it might help out others in the future...also might help me explain things better in the future

 

Heres the link to HPT for keyspan and logworks cpu settings.
Might be other ways but this worked for me
