Hi,
I've bought a Starter Kit for gen4-uLCD-50DT almost a year ago, and have been using it on and off quite nicely. However, a few days ago, all of a sudden the gen4-PA got really hot and is no longer detected as a USB device. There is still power going through, it can still power the LCD (while getting really hot), but cannot be detected by the computer anymore.
So I tried to use the gen4-IB to program my LCD. I connected the LCD to the IB, then to a generic USB-Serial adaptor (I did not have a uUSB-PA5 or the 4D Programming Cable at hand). I've made sure the pins are connected properly between the IB and my USB-Serial adaptor. However, Workshop could not detect the LCD and the LED is red always.
Is there a way I could make this work?
EDIT:
I would love to get a new gen4-PA, but shipping to Malaysia is 3 times the cost of the item itself!
