I am having GREAT trouble with the DG45 servo configuration software. It will NOT connect to the drive(s), At all….. I have installed the Servo configurator 3 software, per the instructions, to include the FTDI driver install (for the programming stick).
When I do a scan it will NOT see any drive(s)……. Also, both the Red and Green LEDs on all three drives are ON, (solid color no blinking). When you look in the Servo Cfg user manual, those LED states are NOT covered, so I have NO clue as to what they mean.
Is it Possible I have a “Bad” programming stick?? I have tried the servo Coagulator 3 on a Vista (64bit), AND on a XP Pro machine. It will NOT connect from either computer
I have tried uninstalling/installing the Servo config software (and drives), multiple times all to no effect. I have read the DG45 manual, and Servo Config manual, so, I am at a loose to understand why it cannot even see the drives. It DOES see the FTDI module in the Programming stick, and when I plug it in, it installs the driver for the programming stick, but when I try to connect, it tells me the drive(s) (all three do the same thing), That the Drives are NOT responding and they time out.
I am running an ESS through a C32 board, and using the C34DG4S translator cables.
If anyone has run into a similar problem, or you have a solution, by all means PLEASE contact me!
Thank you, Scott
