[chirp_users] Problem configured Sainsonic APR510 APRS with latest daily chirp
Hi -
I apologize if this has been asked and answered.
I got my Sainsonic APR510 APRS device up and running today using the manufacturer's config software on my win7 laptop, but I heard that daily-20151212 version of CHIRP had support for changing the "settings" of this device, and since I love CHIRP, I thought I'd try.
Unfortunately, no matter what combination of power-on/power-off/disconnect/connect, I couldn't get it to succeed when doing a Radio->Download from Radio.
My com port is COM4, and I know that works with the manufacturer's web site, but when I try to Download From Radio with CHIRP, it appears to start the download, make it almost all the way through (according to the progress bar), but then a popup shows "An error has occured: '00'" and it fails to download.

Any ideas?

Only one version of the AP510 firmware is supported by Chirp, and at this point that version is a few behind. I'd recommend updating your AP510 to the latest firmware and using the manufacturer's software to configure it.
Here's a link to the firmware: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/AP510/files/Firmware%20Updates%20/201511...
If you're not a member there, I'd recommend joining. Lots of things about the AP510 are not easily discoverable, and they're all discussed at that group.

Forget Chirp with the AP510. It can't handle all of the details that can be programmed into the 510.You'll have to get the native programmer working here.
