    I have used this one http://www.moxa.com/product/UPort_1110.htm at work (for connecting to PLC's) and also borrowed it for connecting my laptop to VEMS on the S2. Works very well for me, have tried XP and Vista drivers, no problems at all! It has diode indicators for transmit, receive and power so you can see whats going on.

        oh... very good news

        so it comes with windows drivers...(including Vista) so i think that XP drivers come too true??

        i am going to buy a new one now

        thank you very much

            I have one of the £2 including shipping halfway around the world cables. I could not make it work with the included driver, but found one on the web, and used some instructions in a thread on this site, and actually made the thing work.

                        but i am so tired of the dave6forum drivers i´´ve tried with 7 or 8 diferents from there and the few who works gives me a bad communication between laptop/Vems ...because they do too many resets ¡¡ more or less 300 in 6 minutes....so it is impossible to make a "nice" Log or check in real time any gauge values

                        i´´ve found more drivers on the net this night,so tomorrow mourning i will try with all again...

                        the needless/points from the megatune gauges dance like crazy whem conect the laptop with Vems and car ignition On ,so it is impossible read "nothing"

                        noone here had this problem??

                          Rocco have you got the correct VEMS settings? You have to set ECU communication timeout to 40 ms, and delay to 30 ms.

                          Also you must turn off all the settings for the LCD output for the firmware especially the AIM protocol.

                          Start vemstune before connecting to the ECU and change the protocol to megatune this should see you through.

                            noone said me nothing about it before....the timeout it is set at 50ms i think. and about delay setting... where can i fin the field for set it to 30ms??

                            nothing done too with the LCD output....
