You may need to run your computer’s setup or configuration program to
enable the port. Consult your computer’s documentation or contact your
computer manufacturer for more details.
Make sure no other software running on your computer is trying to access the serial
port. If you have a PDA, scanner, graphics tablet, fax modem, or other serial devices
that plug into the same serial port, you need to disable its software and restart
Windows before
Navigator K2 Manager
can use that serial port.
If you have an internal modem and an external COM port at the same address, the
external COM port will not work and must be reconfigured. For example, if the
internal modem is set to use COM 2, the computer’s built in COM 2 port will not
function correctly.
Use the
Auto Detect option in the Communication Setup dialog box. Use the Set
COM Port command on the Options menu to display the Communication Setup
dialog box and then click the
Auto Detect
command button to determine which
serial port the keypad is connected to. The serial port on your computer may be
mislabeled.
If you are communicating with the
Navigator K2
and the transfer fails
after
some
data has been transferred, your computer may not support Navigator K2 Manager’s
high-speed communication protocol. Use the Set COM Port command on the
Options menu to display the Communication Setup dialog box and select the
“Medium” or “Low” communication speed.
MACRO PROBLEMS
If you are having problems with missed commands in macros but the IR commands
work fine when placed on individual buttons try editing the Minimum Repeats in
the Macro Editor to increase the number of times the command is repeated.
Click on the
Edit Macro tool from the Tools dialog box on the bottom of the main
screen, click on the button on which the macro you are having trouble with is. When
the
Edit Macro
dialog box opens, double-click on the specific IR command you are
having the trouble with. When the
Edit Infrared Command
dialog box opens,
change the number of repeats to 4 or 5 to start with and if that doesn’t work, bump
it up to 7 or 8.
