I've spent over 6 hours trying to figure out why I can't get this Powerlogger to communicate with Windows 7. I just downloaded the current version of powerlogger 2.6.0 which is running with Scanmaster 2.2. When I turn the key on with motor off, I see the green light flickering inside the kick panel so I know the powerlogger is getting power. When I plug the usb cable into the lab top I hear it chyme letting me know its connected to the computer. The port is set on com 3 which is what is set with the system manager. I see the green connect button and click on it and have also hit F8. Nothing happens. I start the car up and no gauges are even moving on screen.
As stated, I've spent over 6 hours on this headache. I've even switched to a lab top computer with Windows XP running and neither one works. Never seen such a complicated set up as this. According to the instructions, the drivers needed are within the powerlogger program. I even manually tried to install them but my screen and Eric's screen are different. His will display "POWERLOGGER" whereas my lab top is showing FT232R UART when trying to install the new hardware. Has this ever happened to anyone else????? I'am about to my wits end with this powerlogger and Windows 7 issue. If I upgraded to Windows 10 would it be any different????
