'Data Not Read'

[jbella]

New to Unication, but have programmed almost everything else including Mother /\/\, so not a newbie.

Got a used G4. Works. I want it set up 'my way.'

PPS will detect the unit, tells me the serial number from connected devices button and the unit says PC connected. After going through the motions it says 'Data not read.' The unit says Data Exported (or some such).

Main programming PC is a Surface tablet which works fine for everything else including APX software. Tried installing PPS on a gaming computer with the same issue. Installed the drivers, used different cables, same result every time. Firmware is 1.31 and can't update firmware without reading unit. Completely at a loss.

What version of PPS are you using?

Firmware 1.31 is pretty old.

Don’t think you need to read pager to upgrade firmware, but I guess it is a risk that you may lose programming if pager is only copy you have.

Profiles created in older PPS (required with older firmware) doesn’t work as well in newer (v0.4.x) PPS. This means you need to do the programming over from scratch to enjoy the benefits of new PPS and maybe to even work on new PPS.

Newest PPS. Whatever is downloaded now. And yes, to upgrade it says you have to read unit first. Unless I missed something.

Don't really mind losing current programming, was hoping to use it as a base.

I'll build a small codeplug/programming and see if that takes.

Firmware v 1.31 is supposed to work with PPS v0.4.0.44 (current as of this date), so FW shouldn’t be an issue.

Yes. It will take programming. So time to start from scratch, LOL. Thanks.

Since you have an older pager, don't upgrade the firmware to anything higher than V1.35! If you ever decide to go to that version, you can message me.
