AB7607 configuration via BWconfig in Windows 10

Is it possible to configure the AB7607-C in windows using BridgeWay Configuration Tool v1.22 I notice in the user manual it states “BWConfig is compatible with Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, and XP”. I have only successfully been able to configure these modules via Windows XP and unfortunately this is very time consuming considering this laptop is on its last legs. Is there a way to do this via Windows 10 using a USB Serial adapter?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Hi @darryn,

It is possible, but we have had customers report problems connecting when using Windows 10. We have been unable to reproduce these problems in our lab, so it most likely was due to the USB-to-Serial driver that they were using.

Hi Kyle,

What USB-to-Serial driver are you using or recommend for Windows 10.

Cheers,

I have had success with the USB-to-Serial adapters that use the Prolific PL2303 chip.

I have this one: Plugable USB to RS-232 DB9 Serial Adapter (Prolific PL2303HX Chipset) – Plugable Technologies

Hi @darryn,

Can you try forcing the device to COM port 1?
