Wiggle the cable at the device to get a good connection. Does your USB port support other devices? Plug into another port and see if this solves the problem.

My print server cannot be reset to the factory default for some reason. I have tried holding the reset button for 10 secs, but without luck.

I have some devices where I have to hold the reset for 20 seconds. So try holding it longer. And make sure the print server is powered up when you do it.

How I can transfer my files from a Acterna 5100E OTDR to my laptop? It only has a standard internal flash drive and 9 pin output. I have the original software.

This devices interface is extremely old technology the 9 pin connector is most likely a rs232 serial interface . If your laptop has a 9 pin rs232 interface you may need a DTE to DCE adapter .
if you do not have this old rs232 port on your laptop I think this device a usb to null modem rs232 DB9 Serial DCS Adapter Cable with FTDI.

Can't get null modem usb to 9 pin cable to transmit designs to machine.

First, to transmit to your machine using a USB to serial converter, it should have a FTDI chip. Second, you should be transmitting on Com 1 or 2 -- preferably Com1. You can change the port it transmits on in the Device Manager in computer properties on your computer. Third, check on your machine which port it's looking for -- they must match.

When i plug my usb keyboard it doesn't work

Assuming the keyboard is in working order, you need to check other USB ports.
Then, getting into the setup menu on startup, be sure that the legacy USB function is set to "enabled"
var fctb_tool=null; function FCTB_Init_db4814f107004376968433ca64c76ffe(t) { fctb_tool=t; start(fctb_tool); } var fctb_tool=null; function FCTB_Init_d5e5d4832a6e41c49ae8b74084d24c40(t) { fctb_tool=t; start(fctb_tool); }

My computer that has PSW2.0 crashed. It had Windows XP. I have a new HP computer with Windows 7. What do I have to do to make it work on my new computer?

From Singerco.com FAQs: Q. My computer only has USB ports. Can you recommend a Serial (nine pin) to USB converter cable that will work with the Professional Sew Ware™ 2.00a? A. We have found that the PSW works best on newer computers when the USB serial adapter cable has not only compatible drivers for the Windows operating system but also a FTDI chip. We have found this FTDI chip in the cable which is listed below:
CUSB-232A available from Computerplug.com and Cablesalesusa.com.
Any USB to serial adapter with an FTDI chip will work. These cables will work for Windows XP, VISTA, and 7.

Zebra 105SE 25 pin serial cable

error can be on the pc.side or the printer's:

check

- if in windows the LPT ports are addressed properly (if u got a many usb ports, then windows adresses these first and skips the older lpt's- same applies when using an external usb-hub/splitter!)

- that there are no dma or irq conflicts
(see device manager)
- if the right driver is installed, if it suits the windows version u are using/has been written for it

- doublecheck printer against another printer
on your pc using same port

- and/or try to connect it to another pc

so u make sure on which side the error ocurs!

least: check the cable itself

Problem resetting senao 3220

It all depends how your cable is wired. I had to add a null modem adapter and a gender changer to the USB-to-serial cable I bought for this task before I could communicate with the radio. I suggest you try the null modem to see if that is your issue.
