Troubleshooting Guide

Not Reading Instrument

  1. Using Audina cables (or Unitron cables)?
    • Only Audina (or Unitron) cables should be used. For the Nueve product, only the Nueve cables from Audina should be used.
  2. Using CS54 flexstrips?
    • Only CS54 flexstrips are supported. These are about 1 inch long, and have 4 gold contacts.
  3. Using HiPro?
    • Reset Hi-Pro: Disconnect the Hi-Pro power cable for 5 seconds. Alternatively, perform a Hi-Pro Update (in ezFIT: Tools > Hi-Pro Update).
  4. Using correct programming box settings?
    • Check that the software is configured correctly under Tools > Options > Fitting (tab) > Programming Box
  5. Using battery in instrument?
    • Remove it. It helps to determine if power is coming from the programming box and that there is good connectivity. The instrument should whistle when put inside your hand.
  6. Using correct software version?

Error Communicating with Device Hi-Pro

  1. Using correct serial port?
    • The port must be between COM1 - COM4 only for the Hi-Pro to work.
    • See Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Port (COM & LPT).
    • Select the Hi-Pro device and go to Port Settings > Advanced > COM Port Number to change it (must not be in use).
  2. Using correct Hi-Pro drivers?
    • Reinstall ezFIT, and select the correct Hi-Pro drivers (most likely “Hi-Pro Classic”).
    • If selecting Hi-Pro USB, then verify that the Hi-Pro USB drivers (shipped with the programming box, or in the ezFIT installation CD-ROM) are also installed.
    • Restart the computer.

Installing USB-Serial Adapter

  1. Installed USB-Serial adapter drivers?
    • Adapter drivers must be installed before connecting adapter to the computer. See the CDROM that came with the adapter package, or search for the drivers on the Internet.
  2. Connected adapter?
  3. Using correct serial port?
    • The port must be between COM1 - COM4 only for the Hi-Pro to work.
    • See Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Port (COM & LPT).
    • Select the device and go to Port Settings > Advanced > COM Port Number to change it (must not be in use).
