k3 utility

[k0vet]

Help  new K3 user and down loaded the k3 utility but it locks up immediately
and gives the program not responding. I have tried going to the exe file and
bring it up but it does the same thing. I have also removed it and re loaded
it many times and it does not good.

The usb to serial cable works fine as I got hrd to work on the first try no
problem. The drivers etc were down loaded as instructed

John,
What OS are you using?  Firefox, IE, Windows 7, etc?  You might also list what anti-malware you are using.

This is just a guess, but the most likely scenario I can think of is that
the Software is getting a connection to a com port that is not the K3.
 Maybe you could try disabling any other com ports through device manager
and then try to start the K3 utility.  If it is connecting to another com
port, once you open the utility and set it to the correct com port and have
it working you can enable the other com ports again and all should be fine.

I also had found that if the K3 RS232 speed don't match the one set at the software,it will not connect,both have to be the same,I use 4800 on mine.

The K3 Utility will find a K3 at any of the K3's speeds, if the
communications path is available.  The K3 Utility tries all the K3's speeds,
4800 to 38,400 bps.  There is no requirement to set the K3 to any particular
RS-232 speed to use the K3 Utility.
