ThoughtStream USB install

[sankar24]

The new ThoughtStream USB works the same as the previous RS-232 ThoughtStream, but the PC software has changed. There is now a USB driver that needs to be installed first before the software.
The driver ("ThoughtStream USB driver") is available here: http://www.mindplacesupport.com/ThoughtStream.htm.

Incidentally, this is the same driver that is used for the new Procyon, so if you have already installed it for the new Procyon, you do not need to install it again for the ThoughtStream.

So, download and install the USB driver.
Download and install the Interface software.
Plug in the ThoughtStream to your computer.
Set the Serial Port in the software to match the COM port that gets created by the USB driver. (typically choose the highest available COM port # in the software. If that does not work, move to the next lower COM port #)

Questions?

-Andy.

Does it need any other cable than the one which accompanied my TS as the software interface says it is not getting any data from my TS. Any help would be appreciated

There should have been a USB cable included in the Thoughtstream USB package. Use this to connect the TS to your PC.

What OS are you running on your PC?

Have you tried each of the available COM ports in the software?

Just following up...

Are you still having trouble? Let us know.
