Title: ID003 BASIC DRIVER SOFTWARE Post by: SLOTMAN on September 18, 2011, 08:21:45 PM For the life of me I cant seem to get the ID003 basic driver software to work. I keep getting "frame error" I am using a WBA13 of course with ID003. This is a known good working unit as it works in the host and passes all the diagnostic tests. I have tried the DP#8 on then off after power up and tried it without. I am using a Unidesa harness which has a DB9 connector on the end (makes it convenient). It seems like the pin #'s match.
With the attachments I have added you will see that I am using a RS232 to TTL adapter (im cheap and dont want to buy a JCM unit). This TTL adapter uses pins 2,3,5. As you can tell from the Unidesa harness the pins 2,3,5 coincide. I am feeding the unit a direct 12V which I know is sufficent because it will allow me to go through all the self diagnostic tests and they pass. If I put a jumper on the TTL pins 2,3 and use Hyper terminal I get a loopback or echo so I know that I am good up to that point. I am at wits end, anyone have any advice?

If the PC is set up for no parity, whenever the WBA sends a byte with a parity bit of zero the PC will see it as a framing error, because it expects a '1' stop bit in that position.

Thank you Title: Re: ID003 BASIC DRIVER SOFTWARE Post by: SLOTMAN on September 19, 2011, 08:40:09 PM Using the following 9600,8,E,1,N I still get framing error with accload and waiting for communication with ID003 driver

Title: Re: ID003 BASIC DRIVER SOFTWARE Post by: Op-Bell on September 19, 2011, 09:41:05 PM AHA! What is this "ACCLOAD" of which you speak? You need the ID003 simulator to run the validator (free download from JCM). Accload is an accounting tool for reading out logged data, and needs some DIP switches set to work - also it's not supported in all of the WBA firmware..
