[TenTec] Logic 8 and Omni VII? - & now Omni V...

[Gary Smith]

Sure enough, I have the same problem but with an Omni V

Though I've had good luck with Logic as a logging software I 've now 
tried getting the Omni V to interface with it and have not been able 
to do so. I called Logic's tech help but didn't get things resolved. 

I know the USB cable is recgonized by XP, the "Prolific" drivers are 
installed & working and the Omni V is ID'd in Logic as a known radio 
but Logic still doesn't seem to know the Omni V is on the other end.

The error message given on startup says 

"A timeout error occured when attempting to communicqate with a rig. 
Make sure the rig is turned on and check cabling and setup parameters

POLLING DISABLED. 0 characters in buffer". 

All I want to do is have the frequency/band info get imported 
automatically into logic.

Anyone using Logic 8 with an Omni V especially if you're using a 
RS232 to USB  adapter?

Thanks!
