Evoscan disconnecting during logging.

Here's what shows up in the log box when Evoscan disconnects from the USB cable abruptly. I'm using the universal 1.3u cable BTW.

Info: Initialize Vehicle ECU...
Info: Initializing At 5 baud...
Info: Initialization Complete...
Info: Waiting for INIT Response...
Info: ECU ID: E4C1
Info: Connection successful...
Error: Write command error. FT_Status = 4
Info: Datalogger Ended.


I have submitted a ticket to limitless, but Hamish never responded. Anyone dealt with this before? Have any ideas or solutions? Thanks.

Usually taking it out and plugging it back in will provide a temp. fix, but sure enough it'll happen again.

FT_STATUS = public enum(
OK = 0,
INVALID_HANDLE,
DEVICE_NOT_FOUND,
DEVICE_NOT_OPENED,
IO_ERROR,<--------------------------------------------------- 4
INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES,
INVALID_PARAMETER,
INVALID_BAUD_RATE,
DEVICE_NOT_OPENED_FOR_ERASE,
DEVICE_NOT_OPENED_FOR_WRITE,
FAILED_TO_WRITE_DEVICE,
EEPROM_READ_FAILED,
EEPROM_WRITE_FAILED,
EEPROM_ERASE_FAILED,
EEPROM_NOT_PRESENT,
EEPROM_NOT_PROGRAMMED,
INVALID_ARGS,
OTHER_ERROR);

I would say it is bad soldering/cut wire somewhere.

I realize this is an old thread but I'm having the exact same problem. It's 98% of the time when I go WOT for more than 2 seconds or so. Same fix - unplug USB, close EvoScan, plug in USB, restart EvoScan & log again. Was there ever a solution to this?

Sorry for reviving this thread but I have been having this problem for over a year and thought it was a ****ty laptop. I just got a brand new one and it still happens. Could it be cable related? Anyone have any ideas?

Can't be my laptop. It's a Samsung Series 5 with an I3 processor and 4GB of RAM.
