P3 Utility Help Please

Windows 10.

P3 Utility Ref 1.16.3.15

Connects to my P3 just fine.

When I click on Configuration Tab, both Save and Restore options are grayed
out.

Help please. What am I doing wrong.

Make sure your com port is not in use by something else.

Click "Test communications" on the Port tab to verify the P3 connection.
The config buttons are disabled if the P3 Utility doesn't think it's
connected to a P3.

Re: P3 Utility Help Please

Have done that. It tells me I am connected.

No other programs are using the port.

Configuration: K3 >> P3 >> Port 10.

Re: P3 Utility Help Please

Thanks Bill. Always a good suggestion, but didn't help.

Port, Firmware, Command Tester, and Capture Image tabs all work as
expected.

Configuration tab has Save P3 Configuration and Restore P3 Configuration
grayed out.

Re: P3 Utility Help Please

When something strange like this happens another step to try is to refresh the firmware in the radio.

Hank, you probably already did this but if not, uninstall the P3 utility. Reboot Windows 10. Reinstall the P3 utility from the Elecraft site. Pray. Try again.
