Hi all,

I posted this with screen shots and perhaps it was rejected because of that, so will try posting with plain text only:

I've been off the air for some years and am trying to slowly bring myself back. I since upgraded my old shack PC from WinXP to Win 7 and most of my programs work, but I had to replace ARSWIN with ARSVCOM (I am using Pablo's EA4TX ARS RCI-SE LPT board with my Yaesu AZ-ELE rotor)

I installed the newest version of ARSVCOM and it works great controlling my RCI-SE board with a new SIIG LPT board. I also re-installed SatPC32 and it works fine too.

ARSVCOM creates a virtual port and it appears properly in the device manager.

I read the following FAQ:

And ran the SDX program for SatPC32 and configured the SDX utility it to COM9. And when I run "Read Pos", it reads the proper position from the ARS RCI board. In SatPC32, I configured the Setup -> Rotor Setup to Yaesu_GS-232 and "search" for ARSVCOM so it starts on SatPC32 startup and stored the configs and restarted.

But SatPC32 still does not talk to ARSVCOM when I hit R+ or when I manually park or position, it does not send the command to ARS board, any ideas what could be wrong?
