Did you follow the installation instructions EXACTLY?
They are quite picky about sensor location & very picky about wiring.
Do not be lazy with wiring them up.

the LC1's are easy as to install, done heaps of them. I am sure you got it all correct if the programming part worked as you said? or are you just talking about the free-air calibrate pushbutton?

I believe it is a software issue. Have you checked you have the correct com port configured in logworks?

I will grab my laptop out of my car tomorrow and have another banter at where settings actually are so I can steer you in the exact direction needed to confirm the com port settings.

I do believe that you have it working all ok though. If it is the unit you told me you were getting, then someone could of changed some settings on you? because from memory, different firmware versions used differing baud rates, and I think that it is configurable, so maybe you dont have it set to whatever the last bloke had it set to. I am not fully up to date with the latest firmware in terms of the com settings, but I will sus it out tomorrow when I get a chance and let you know.

Do you get any coms when trying to configure the aux output ports 1 and 2 ? (ie. to set up the voltage levels they output with the seperate configuration program LM programmer ? )

Talk tomorrow mate!

Hey Thanks

i bit the bullet and just brought a new one from ROCKET IND $225 they stuffed up and sold my wife just the cable so i went back and they gave me the full LC-1 with O2 (#3769) for the same price

it is wired in EXACTLY the way it says in wiring diagram and it is calibrated right

it is a software problem as you said and it most proberly the usb to db9 cable settings

got my work xmas party today so ill be out most of the day and ill to pissed to work on it when i get home

Ive had a little bit of experience with trying to connect old scientific equipment with serial ports to modern laptops with USB to serial adapters. In my case it has always come down to having the right adapter. Some are shit and just don't work for some equipment. Usually the $50 adapters work better than the $10 jobbies. Hope it is just a setting though. Good luck!

thats the weird part it connects in the lm programmer v3.27 but wont connect in logworks 3

[RT40Corona4AGTE]

yep, most definately a software problem, let me chase some stuff up today and get back to you tonight!
