Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 The first thing you should try is a reset:1. Turn off power to the 1602 and disconnect the Cat52. Set rotary switches to 0 - 03. Turn on power for 5 secs.4. Power off.5. Reset rotary switch to desired number6. Turn on power and hook up Cat5Now try Referesh in the Hardware Editor. See if this doesn't solve your problem.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Did you uninstall the demo version before you installed the new version you purchased. I remember reading that you may needed to do that or you may have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
