PC Based XR25 USB Cables

[Chet T16]

Any idea on when you'll be shipping?

The connectors come from china and shipping from there seems to take an age at the minute. I would hope to have the cables in the post within two weeks

What version of the application are you using?

1.83. It seems to be the most stable version before all the extra features were added (which are of no benefit unless you have the necessary hardware, which seems to be about €400 from what i've seen)

The software is great but its not ideal as all we want is something to display the sensor values without the other "clutter"

Ok thanks, can it be send to Argentina?

Yes, £35 includes postage worldwide but i would suggest the insured/trackable option for £3 extra

Alrighty.

Good good. I just need to trace readings without having to check it manually, so no need for Apple design here.

Could you reserve one for me as well ? I will order 'officially' as soon as my PayPal account does what it is supposed to do...

Ok, PayPal payment seems ok now.

Payment received, thank you.

Five left now so if anybody wants one that hasn't paid you don't have long left

Hi Chet,

you asked me to provide shipping address etc. Unfortunately there is no reply button or option available for me to answer your mail Only an option to Delete or Move the item.
Can you help me with that ?

Regards,
Dirk

Hi,

I guess there's a restriction because of your post count.

I'll pm you my email address now

As i'm back to college soon i'm not going to have time to make up the cables so i'm only going to do 5 more for the foreseeable future. After these are gone i may accept individual orders but the lead time may be quite long!

Instead of being able to buy complete cables you can buy a kit of parts to make your own compatible cable

Does the software run on Vista/Win7?

Looks pretty cool.

 

[Chet T16]

I have it running on win 7 pro 32bit

The cable arrived today. Thanks for that! However, two things:
* Device driver is not found for Win7 32-bit and WinXP 32-bit.
* Software was not included in the shipment.

Is the driver included in the software installation package? Could you make that available for download somewhere? Version 1.83 that is.

 

[Chet T16]

Oops, software and driver is in the download section

Ok, next problem. When trying to run the setup.exe manually (bat didn't work), I get this:

Following failure messages were detected:
+ Downloading http://renault-clip/XR25_D2XXUnit_NET/XR25_PC1_183.application did not succeed.
+ The remote name could not be resolved: 'renault-clip'

Cable drivers installed nicely, though.

Afaik someone else had that problem using XP home, is that what you're using?

It might be best to email the author of the software if you can't get it installed

Found the issue. Had to copy the files locally when running them. Ran them from my network drive at first.

Looking forward to seeing this in action!

Btw, I am seeing some wingdings characters:

Anyone else that experience this?

Try manually extracting the fonts somewhere and dropping them into the windows font folder, that'll sort it
