thizzwear 0 Posted May 3, 2009 Hooked the LP24 up. Opened SBE and typed "test", then hit cutter, then cut, then cut tile. Nothing. I've got it connected via Serial. All the cables [power & serial] are attached. The install went smooth. SBE is fairly easy to use, but the stupid thing just wont communicate with the computer. I'm about 5 minutes away from throwing this thing off of the freeway overpass. When I go to Cutter, then click Setup, the LP is selected as the default and so is "Com1". When I click Comm settings, it reads: 9600 8 None 1 and the "Hardware" radio button is selected. If anyone would like to help save this machine from it's impending freeway toss, please help soon. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempted Graphics 0 Posted May 3, 2009 Did you check your device manager on the computer and make sure all the settings match also and sometimes playing with the different cutters and such gets it sometimes and when you are in the device manager make sure that it shows which port it is hooked to and make double sure your cutter is online and also make sure you loaded the driver software, that is all I can think of as of now.

thizzwear 0 Posted May 3, 2009 The device manager settings match the cutter settings and the cutter is "OnLine". Still doesnt work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted May 19, 2009 Using the Serial cable that came with the unit, and not a 3rd party extended cable? Do you have more than 1 9-pin Serial port on the computer, because it could also be COM2 if so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NukleoN 34 Posted August 20, 2009 Doesn't the LP have a USB connection? Thinking about Com1 and 2 again makes me shudder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
