The connector on the side of the BC250D is not a USB connector it is a prop=
rietary connector with a serial connector on the other end of the cable. Tr=
y removing the USB adapter and connecting the serial connector directly to =
the serial port on the computer. See if that fixes your problem.

The connector on the side of the BC250D is not a USB connector it is a proprietary connector with a serial connector on the other end of the cable. Try removing the USB adapter and connecting the serial connector directly to the serial port on the computer. See if that fixes your problem.<br>

      If you have come here to find out about the 250D you have come to the right place! In fact the discussion of the BC-250D and how it works is the only acceptable topic on this list. Any discussion about anything other than the BC-250D is OFF TOPIC. I hope this is clear to all group members..
