Hi,
I tried downloading my first flight of the 2011 season from my LX20 (old hardware version). SeeYou connects fine, but after about a minute, it says that there was an error communicating, error code -14. I tried with 3 different computers, one with a serial port (not going through a USB-To-Serial converter).
- Last fall, everything was working fine.
- I can download the waypoints from the LX20 to SeeYou (only downloading flights seems broken).
- The LX20 spent the whole winter stored in my house.
- The only thing I changed before taking it for the first season flight was the log time interval that I changed from 4 secs to 5 secs.

Any idea what I could try to diagnose the problem?

Hi Gabriel,

I haven't seen the exact error you mention below.

Does he LX20 show any "security fail" (or similar) errors at power-up? If
so, it needs to have the battery replaced and needs to be re-sealed. I can
do that for you for $30. The "10-year" battery needs replacement every 3 to
5 years.
