Serial Connection and FF6 Transmitter - No response from PC

[0023892s]

I have made the serial circuit board and am trying to use it with Windows 2000 and a Futaba FF6 transmitter. I have tested the curcuit with an analyser and it seems to be ok. But when I try to calibrate it, there is no response from the PC. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

There are several different serial interfaces. The simple one from the FMS handbook does not work with Windows 2000 or XP. The one with a PIC microcontroller is the only one that works. Is that the one you have ?

That's one of the ones that doesn't work. As I said you need the version with a PIC microcontroller as described in the FMS 2.07 documentation.
