Did u disconnect it from the adr?

quads4_life

are you supposed to?

I bought the pulse from here and did not recieve any upgrade instructions and the ones on quads site did not say anything about weather it had to be conected or dissconected from the adr just that your not supposed to connect it to the pc untill prompted.

I ran the preinstaller, but I still had to go into the device manager and update the driver on the uart bridge controller thingy or whatever it's called. If you've ran the preinstaller, go into your device manager (right click on my computer, properties, hardware, device manager) and see if there's anything with a yellow question mark beside it. If so, right click on it and select update driver.

So do i have to unplug the pulse from the adr??

quads4_life

ok i unpluged it still dont recognize it and there are no yellow ? I am updateing the drivers on it anyways to see what it does.

any other ideas?

XP or Vista? If xp, do you get the ding DING when you plug the usb connector in or do do you get the low tone triple ding?

I get the ding DING when I just plug up the pulse but when I try to run the updater it does nothing

running xp

Then your computer is recognizing the module and probably has the drivers installed correctly. What happens when the updater runs? Does your pulse turn on when you plug it into the computer? It should.

quads4_life

yes it does

i had the problem also
run the pre installer
then before you update the pulse
another window will open to find the drivers.
you need to install that manually. you need to browse where you saved the driver to in the window that opened. click on it to manually install it. then you can update the pulse

i couldnt get my computer to install the driver by it self. i had to do it manually and it all worked well.
try it

quads4_life

Tried that.

I have uninstalled the drivers through device manager and when I hook the pulse back up it says found new hardware the you hear the tones and the little pop and the window says your hardware is ready to use I am not getting any window to pop up. It did the first time I pluged it up then it wont do it again

you have the latest 3.5 downloaded?
ok so you ran the pre installer by un zipping it then clicking on the pre installer?
then open pulse update wait for the prompts follow directions and when it says plug in the pulse plug it in.
at this point it should look for drivers. if it dont look for drivers just hit update.

where is the prob comming in?

quads4_life

yes I have the latest downloaded
I did everything else just as you say the problem is that its not recognizing it when it tells you to plug it in. I am not hearing the ding DING of it connecting
