Thanks to all who responded on this and all is now working properly.
Last evening, as I was pulling my hair out on this problem, the software
suddenly recognized the W2 and I was in business. This was after I had
plugged/unplugged the W2 end of the cable dozens of times, reloaded
drivers, etc. At the time, I thought maybe the problem was a dirty or
corroded plug or jack as the previous owner had never connected the W2
to his PC. After reading these recent posts, it's also possible that I
powered down/up the W2 while the software was running. At any rate, I
cleaned the plug with DeOxit and inserted it several times into the jack
and it's still working well.
I calibrated the W2 against my LP-100A and a setting of 498 on the W2
resulted in about 5 watts difference between the two at the 1,500 watt
level. The difference at lower power levels was a bit more or less
than that depending upon the level.
