I'm not familiar with your software, but you should be able to download with it, all the same. Be sure you have your serial settings at 8N1. (Can't transfer 8 bit files unless you are set for 8 bits, you know.) If you have B protocols available, use them. If not, YModem should be your next best choice. I suspect your problem is that you have been set to 7E1 rather than 8N1. Let us know if I guessed wrong and if you need more help. You might want to go over to the Practice forum and master the downloading there. There are no charges while you work in that forum, and things work there the same as here. To get there, just GO PRACTICE. —Betty
