Just talked to Doug from delcom.

He is testing the fix now.... unfortunately, this cannot be fixed in the USB driver... however it can be fixed in the IR.exe application.

I will keep you guys updated.

Not sure if delcom can fix the problem by releasing a new USB driver....

My NON-working JP1 USB cable is:

SN: 5695
Version: 11 3/23/2005

Any idea when a fix is going to be available?

After finally figuring out the KM and IR programs and tweaking the remote I can't get the the data uploaded. It's driving me crazy! :eek:

Plus my wife thinks I'm an idiot for spending all this $ and all I got so far is headaches. :x

Any help appreciated.

Doug at delcom was testing a fix yesterday, Not sure what the fix would be... it seems we need to modify IR.exe .... anyways, don't worry, this will be resolved.

Hi all:

The problem of the USB chip is fixed. Delcom will release a new frimware: version 12 to fix the problem. If anyone bought the USB kit/cable from diygadget.com, please contact me for a replacement.

The detailed information is posted in the following thread:

So there is no way to fix this issue via software? We are limited to hardware replacement?

NEVER MIND!

Found this driver and all is fine!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm having the same problem (Data read back differs from data written) using IR 8.04.

For years everything has been working fine but I got a new receiver and am now using a different laptop(Dell E6420). The problems I'm having integrating the new receiver are an issue for another post. I'd like to get IR working on the new laptop running Win 7 32 bit.

Tried all the Delcom drivers, currently using version 4.7.0.0

USB_WIN.EXE reports:
SerNo: 24107
Ver: 16 11/16/2005

This JP1 interface (slightly oversized black heatshrinked USB plug with 3' blue ribbon cable) works fine on my older laptop (Dell D830) running XP SP3.

What to do?
