I have still not fixed this issue - very frustrating as I have lots of lovely simkits gauges which refuse to move! I am thinking I must have a faulty CCU2 controller board, although the red light flashes OK on the board which I believe means there is a connection Is anyone else out there running simkit gauges through the old CCU2 board, under Windows XP ? What software are you using to calibrate? Is it still available to download from anywhere?

Hi Bill Thanks for your response Yes simkits now only offer the USB style gauges - but the ones I have are the previous generation Each gauge has a ribbon cable which connects in to a PCB controller board (called CCU-2) This board then has 1 USB connector coming out, which plugs in to the PC According to their own website, this setup is no longer compatible with 64 bit operating systems - such as Windows 7 This is why they brought out the new range of gauges with the USB connections They do still offer the drivers and calibration software on their website for the CCU-2 style gauges - which I have installed, but the gauges do not respond I have emailed their support a couple of times, but they do not reply I may take the board to an electronics engineer and get them to check it over - perhaps it's fried

Hello and thanks for taking the time to read my post Can you help me please? I can not get my CCU2 Controller to calibrate any of my Simkits gauges As best as I can see, everything is installed correctly, I have the flashing red light on my CCU2 board - confirming the firmware has been loaded I have downloaded the drivers from the simkits / TRC Simulations website, and followed their installation manual PDF for the controller board TRCLink application confirms the board is connected to the PC I am running this from Windows XP TRC Calibration software loads and reports a connection to the board, but when I move the calibration sliders, they have no effect on the gauges I am not exactly sure what I am supposed to be seeing, but I am guessing as I move the slider, the needles on the gauges should be moving? It's as though there is no output from the board, along the ribbon cables to the gauges - even though there does appear to be power in to the board - and the red light is flashing on the board when calibration software is launched I have made a video showing exactly what happens - to help illustrate my setup! https://youtu.be/3k3FmPTxgJo Thank you very much for any help you can give me - much appreciated!
