I can't make it work

I received it today, i've followed all the instructions but nothing happens, if I just turn both transceivers on, both led's remain lit, but I get no response in Hyper Terminal

I've installed the drivers, windows is recognizing the hardware without problems.
I'm using Windows XP SP 2, the hardware is installing itself in COM 3

My base transceiver is connected to the PC, when I make it SCAN channls, I get the response on HT, but if I press X, it continues scanning, I can only stop the scan if I press the button in the transceiver again

And the other transceiver is just powered up, it's not connected to any device, if I connect it to a device it blinks like crazy and I can't get a response.


Does anyone have an Idea of what's wrong ?

Good morning,

When you attach the USB unit does the com port initalize correctly? When you attempt to send keys to the USB unit, do you get any kind of action out of the USB unit? The LED should blink every time you press a key.
