First, are you using a "real" serial port or a USB-to-serial adapter? Second, have you confirmed that the software and the radio are both set to the same baud rate and device address? And finally, what CAT delay setting are you using in SatPC32?
Mine works perfectly with either type of interface at 9600 baud, default address of $60, and a CAT delay of 70.

de KB5YZG
I have had my SatPC 32 up and running for long time, all
modules seem to work fine except the CAT. It wont take control of the Icom910H and track the doppler.
When I designate a particular satellite
and click on the "C" for CAT control, the s/w connects to the radio and the Icom receives some bogus frequencies and mods , that don't correspond to the selected satellite (doppler file). I have re-checked all of the configuration setting !! ??? The S/W seems to be talking to the radio, but not with the right frequencies and doesn't track these frequencies once they are loaded.
Any
suggestions. Thanks , Bob -kb5yzg tel (828) 696-4103
