OWON SPE3103 Power Supply -- PC, com port problems

It says that it lost the connection!



I've tried it on two different computers. Same thing. If I use the other software, it actually works.



Now, it did work before just fine so what gives now I have no idea. I've tried different cables, different PCs to no avail. What's happening?


P.S. I did clean install of Windows 10 on both PCs recently, so perhaps some software misconfiguration?

P.S.S. Frankly, now to think about it, I even tried it with same cable on same port a week or so back prior to doing clean install of Windows 10. I don't know what gives here.

I solved the problem.




There is a file in program folder, it's called ini.pro
Inside ini.pro there is a line protocol = mod

Change it to protocol = com


How in the hell and what is going on? I'm thinking OWON updated the program and made a mistake or something. Because previously everything worked for me just fine. 


How you suppose to know things like these? I figured it out just by chance. I downloaded software for SPM series power supply and it worked. I went into config files and found a difference. Damn.
