Digital HP Tuners registering different cable.

[cmoris12]

One of my friends let me barrow his DHP tuner. I downloaded the DHP software from Dropbox along with .Net Framework 1.1. I have some pictures on my current setup. The different cable is the silver one with blue connectors. its a serial to usb cable. Number 2303 on cable. The problem I am having is when I open PowerTuner it wants to register the cable. I have tried all 16 COM ports and buad Rates. Also tried all 3 USB ports on laptop. And every time it shows up unable to communicate. When I go into Device manager I get a Code 10 error for not enough data on the cable and it is currently up to date. When I talk to my Friend he says I need to find a driver that will let my computer connect/recognize the cable. My computer is running windows 8

.

Ditto but running windows 10. Messed around about half hour on it tonight and I'm scratching my head on this one but not a big computer guy. I was just about to start the same thread.

you need the driver for the adapter cable you are using from usb to serial

Guy 2.. you need to use a compatibility mode.

if you are still having problems, there is a bad rash of cables that look like that , that flat out dont work.

Keyspan or GTFO

keyspan, as above. those cheapo serial/usb's seem to be hit or miss depending on how far away from quota they were at the time in china. and even then DHP dont like em

So is there a spacfic cable i need to get from keyspan? and part Numbers? This would be replacing the silver cord correct?

the key span is what i have, they have drivers on their site there. you pick the one that matches your os in your pc. driver for a USA-19HS

you would also need a normal serial cable from the dhp to the keyspan. then the usb from the keyspan to the laptop.
