Dean Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 I've tried to search everywhere sorry. - Have uninstalled the G4+ software. - Installed G4X software and restarted multiple times, including uninstalling and reinstalling drivers. - It recognises the G4X USB connection in device manager with the yellow triangle (code 10). - Com cable is plugged into the one with the orange ring, and I have a AIM dash connected via the CAN wired outputs on the loom. - Everything worked normally on the G4+ Any help would be appreciated!

Adamw Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 This is an error that I havent come across before. Are you using the latest PC Link V6.19.65? Is it windows 10? Do you have an entry in both the com port section and the Universal serial bus section like my pic below? Which one is showing the error?

Dean Posted December 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Yes, 6.19.65 There are no Ports visable unless I select "Show Hidden Devices" I'm using a VirtualBox Windows10 on a Macbook. It's worked perfectly with the G4+ over the past 3 years. I've just uninstalled the Link USB COM3 under ports incase it was trying to look for the old ecu. Then unistalled the USB driver and reinstalled. Cycled power. Still no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted December 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 I have them both visible now, but both with yellow warnings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Ok, sorry I cant help with a Mac, I have never touched one so dont have any experience to offer. G4+ used an old silicon labs VCP where as G4X uses a FTDI chip that does both VCP and a direct native USB, so the fact G4+ worked with a similar setup is not really relevant. I have however seen some other users claim that G4X can work with a mac but I have no idea what emulator system they are using. You may have to experiment with various different VM systems before you find one that works. The error you have suggests the VM is not passing the USB commands through to the real ports correctly. Edit: Yesterday on the facebook group "Link ECU Tuning and Tips" there is some discussion about this subject. Some claim it works, others claim it only works on older macs and not the latest. Parallels and VMware fusion are the two options that are mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted December 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Thanks for that. It is an issue with the VirtualBox setup. Parallels worked straight away How do I now upload my G4+ tune onto the G4X? The file types are different right? Edit: I'll ask this as a new topic.
