Check under which com port number the device is installed (device manager). In the software settings, check if it coincides (this is the emulation of the usb to com port - sometimes when connecting to other usb, the com numbering changes)

There is port 1 in the device manager and also in the programmer. I tried the default port after inserting the programmer (there was port 4) but it worked the same way.

xoree · Answer

Can you show the device manager and this device specifically?

brutus1950 · Answer

The symptoms are as if the programmer cannot see the CPU. This would mean that the ZIF was not properly inserted into the socket, but it is not the case. The programmer itself is damaged. But I don't see the reason.

Connect to another computer with different system (win xp and win7).

As I wrote in the first post, it worked on win7 and winXP. I also checked Terez on a computer with XP - it does not work, it is exactly the same as in the attached photos.

Change the usb cable to a different one.

brutus1950 · Answer

I changed the cable, it's the same. I also changed COM to the default 4 also nothing.

brutus1950 · Answer

I checked my friend's computer (win7) works. I checked with my USB cable.

Added after 1 [hours] 3 [minutes]:

On the profilic.com website I found an instruction which shows that the PL-2303XA / HXA chip does not work under win 8/10. But to make it harder, there is the same chip in the satellite cable and the satellite software works with it.

Uninstall this COM port and try to install the driver from the attachment. Also try to set the COM port to a higher one, eg COM3. In addition, I also had errors when it comes to communication with this programmer, but surprisingly, when I put the chip (12F508), it read and programmed it correctly. Maybe it is similar with you ...? :-)

Ultimately, if you are going to stay with Win 10, I recommend you install VirtualBox and then Win XP in it and try playing in a virtual system. VirtualBox supports the USB port.

Hello Thank you for your response . I ran on XP and everything works.

brutus1950 · Answer

I attach an additional note. You should not let Windows update drivers. After updating the driver does not work with error code 10. Regards and I close this thread.

Read pdf - what system and how - also controls

Ps.There is also the function to restore earlier drivers - it helped - as there is a yellow arrow on the device ...

hey, because the app doesn't work for me

dziekan_tek · Answer

Provide more details, as a text like it doesn't work is a bit too little to help you . I have Win 10 Pro x64 and everything laughs without the slightest complaint.

dominikkuznik65 · Answer

In the sense it doesn't detect the platform on one of the apps and it just happens to be a chip one number less, great. I would like some kind of control app, if you would provide a link, that would be great. Because I've searched and downloaded from 7 apps that don't even run, and I have a 7k computer, so well, it's barely six months old.

dziekan_tek · Answer

Let's start with the device manager.... when you plug in the programmer, how is it seen in the device manager? Will you upload a screenshot? You need to expand the COM ports and there we can see how it is seen.

This is not a computer issue - this programmer will go (literally) on any computer :-)

.

dominikkuznik65 · Answer

You can't see the port in the application, but in general the chip isn't even in the software. The port I don't know which one to choose, but the computer in the manager sees the pad.
