Hi everybody,

since i can remember we have got problems with communication manager driver software ( which is comming with the FF ITK ) using with PCMCIA FBUS card.

I cant use our PCMCIA FBUS 1 or PCMCIA FBUS Series 2 card with the latest communication manager 4.0.1 because the card is not working after installation of the software.

Hi,

There is no such limit of CM 4.0.1 to work with PCMCIA-FBUS interface.

We only have problem with some Dell Laptop because of some hardware issue.

Please refer to the related discussion link:

Also there are several diagnose suggestion for you.

1. Check the Device Manager to see whether the driver is installed and identified correctly.

2. Try several PCMCIA-FBUS cards in your Laptop.

3. Try the same PCMCIA-FBUS card in different Laptop with CM 4.0.1.

Hope this will help. If any further request, please feel free to email me through fieldbus.support@ni.com.

You could get swift reply and support.

Thanks.
