Vip reader and writer not at all responding

[AlexAbramov]

Hi all!

 

My friend had a Husqvarna Iris that he hasn't used for some "years". It was used very little but now my friend has decided to conquer it.

 

His problem is whenever he tries to read or even write he gets an error saying "not responding" he got it to actually read the ready-loaded "Iris Collection" card which he got with it twice but has trouble doing it. 

 

The programmable card shall not read or even write...I don't want my friend to go bald, as he is pulling his hairs.

This card to which you're attempting to write is compatible with reader/writer unit? The new with purple color writing ,cant be written by older reader/writer and old blue 286 card cant be written by newer USB unit. I haven't confused you more, I hope so?  I found this after buying used blank 286 card that was not written to by my new unit.  It is also possible that the unit or card has some dirty contacts or is simply worn out.

One more thing if the card is worn out its better you opt for a new one, in fact you must stop wasting time on the older one and get a new one. It will help you to get your projects done quickly.

I agree to the above point, but my opinion is before going for the new one, If possible, take the cards as well as reader to a local HV dealer and he will test them. You never know you may get the actual problem and solve the issue without much efforts.
