I wasn't sure where to post this request. Radio or Software. I'm pretty sure it's a radio issue.
I program my 996P2 with Arc-XT Pro. through the front USB port.
A couple of weeks ago, I started getting a pop up message saying "time- out, check baud rate settings match in scanner and
software" when I would go to download to or upload from from the radio. It starts to read or send and then it gets part way through and I get the popup message.

80737

Com7 is the port I'm using and it's set to 115200.

I'm not sure what changed (or how it changed). I never had any problem transferring data before.
I can use the virtual control and it works fine, so it's communicating with the radio.

I don't see anything in the settings of the radio that lets me set the baudrate, except for the GPS baudrate.

The cable and software Works fine programming my 325P2 with the exact same systems so I would think it's a radio issue

instead of a software or cable issue.

Would a complete reset help?

Congrats! i've had a electrical surge while uploading to scanner and it glitched everything. I had to reset scanner to factory and re-aquire comm setting and then everything worked as it needed.
