    Hello Valery.

    Thanks for your response.

    I don't remember any particular error message.  I'd have to hook it all up again and see.  I would try to take a backsite reading and basically there was no response at all from the instrument.   The Allegro would not trigger any activity whatsoever when connecting, trying to take a measurement, nothing.

      I just checked.  Error message says "Error reading data"

  This is a direct copy from their knowledge base. I know 2.58 is a higher build number...but they kept most all the settings from the 1.67.
  
  Try to get a hold of Brian Hammer....he's the TS guru. If you do get to him...tell him Rob Rosa said hey. He usually solves my issues in under 5 mins.

    Hello Rob.

    Thanks for your response.  I've tried those settings and they didn't work.  Is Brian Hammer in the tech. department at Carlson?
