I have a MX2 Orbit display and the only program that works is LCDC.
When i try CONNECT with any other program i have the follow error message:

Error:Unable open port. or error 5 or error 31.

Please advice.

Hi jros3e,

Thanks for your question. It sounds like you have a rather common problem, which is easily remedied. LCDC constantly uses the COM port while it is running, you will have to close any screens that may be running on LCDC, and perhaps even the entire program to stop it from using the port. This will allow other programs access to the COM port and should solve your errors.

Hopefully this will allow you to enjoy all the programs that are available for your display,

Troy
