Have you tried a "hard reset"? I believe there is a tiny button inside the battery compartment that resets the remote. I don't know if you have to push it once or hold it for the hard reset and I don't have the manual. Either way, it will clear whatever is on the remote and revert to the default setting. Then I would make sure you have the latest software version of neo edit. Also make sure you have the latest firmware version for the remote. Update them both and then try to download your configuration.

For your serial-usb problem do a search on the forum....I recall seeing other users who had to use a certain brand of usb adapter to get it to work.

Hi,

For your error code:
"error 0070: segger module initialization failed"
I had the same problem (only to upload from the remote but the download was OK ) and i think the remote always give the same error code for different problems.

Like yours, my remote gave the message: invalid CF version or corrupt flash.

I tried lots of things (the reset button and so on... ) but the solution for me was to open Neo Edit and to download an empty file (just open a new project and click on download)

For the USB-Serial adapter, it seems it doesn't work very well because there are lots of parameter that sometime you can't change (handshaking... ) some of them can only send informations but for some applications, you need TX + RX to receive the acknoledgement informations. In half or full duplex...

And sometimes, when you plug the USB card, the new com port is number 6 or 7 or 8 but the program you use only works with port COM 1 and maybe 3.

After, as tkrug says, there are different contolers in the usb adapters and the compatibility with the computer/motherboard is not sure at 100 %.

So try to find someone who has the same computer as you to know what he is doing.

An other possibility is to use a friend's computer (older) with a native com port (sometime it is more simple!)

Hello

I've installed NeoEdit on a new PC (with COM ports on a PCI card). I got a the first download the error "error 0070: segger module initialization failed". After that my ProntoNEO showed only "invalid CF version or corrupt flash".
Several tasks didn't help; hardware reset, download default.cfg, etc. ... always the same: "invalid CF version or corrupt flash".

I installed NeoEdit on old PC (with integrated COM ports). There I was able to download default.cfg without any problems.

It seems, that NeoEdit is very "restrictive" in working with COM ports other than on-board.

Hope this helps you :-)

Regards
Christian
