Evoscan help

So I got my Tractrix cable in today and wanted to see if everything is working, so I hooked it up but I get a dialog box saying " USB cable device not responding". But when I use ECUFlash to download my ecu it worked fine. Anybody have any ideas? I uninstalled the usb driver and reinstalled onto Evoscan, USB drivers, x84, and still nothing.

maybe the com port. Try different com port by selecting menu Logging\Select COM device from EvoScan to select different com to see if it works.

When it asks you to install for the first time I just did the normal install, then I heard that you had to install it directly to EVoscan, so I un-installed it, re-installed directly to evoscan and it still won't work. I was looking up fixes and ran across this guy on youtube starting up evoscan, I did everything the same except after he installs the USB driver x86, another dialog box pops up for the serial port, I never got that pop up box.

All BAUD means is how much information is sent per second.

The usual connection speed for most (computer related) devices is 9600 BAUD, Port [insert COM port # here], data bits set to 8, Parity: None, Stop Bits 1, and no flow control.

I remember when I fired up Evoscan I had a similar problem, in where I could not connect either.


Can you post a screenshot of the problem? Or explain the steps you are taking to connect Evoscan to your car? I'm sure your just missing an easy step.

I don't have a screen shot, I'll try to describe what I'm doing. I have Evoscan and Ecuflash on my labtop, when I hook up the tractrix cable it will work to down load my stock ECU rom but I can't get a connection on Evoscan. I just get the dialog box saying "USB device not responding". I've tried to open up the logging tab and click on "Select USB" but there is nothing to select, I've also tried unclicking the autoconnect to wideband and still nothing. I asked a friend that uses EVoscan and he said I probably wasn't hooked up to the correct COM port, I can't change the COM port on "seclect Com device on EVoscan either. Any idea's??
