TMAT Communication Problems....
Anyone had a problem with getting a communication time out error? I am able to get it to link, then as soon as I try to read the map, etc., I get a communication interrupted message. After this it will no longer link, and tells me the software has found ports, but no module. Doing this on 3 differerent laptops, 2 Vista, one xp. I've checked all the connections, completely removed and installed software, as well asd the unit itself. Thought maybe it was a vista, usb to serial adapter issue, so I went out and purchased a used laptop w/XP and a serial port. No change. Been speaking with Randy at Zippers, and he assured me that he thought it was a Vista issue, and not the TMax.
The curious thing is that when I initially installed the unit a week ago, it worked fine. I was able to load the correct map, monitor functions, etc. all worked. I know the unit is working properly because of the way the bike is running, and I also have the Thunderheart speedo that shows real-time AFR's with the bike running, front and rear.
No bent pin, connections are tight, bike runs great, AFR's adjusting.........
Just totally confused and pissed. I've spent almost a week trying to get the module to communicate.
Anyone with a similar experience? Any advice would be appreciated. Runnin' out of hair to pull out.

Could be the serial bus cable itself causing it, since you've tried Vista with an adapter and xp with serial port and no adapter. Check each pin in the cable for continuity while flexing it around. Short of that, I don't know.
