Hello,

I just purchase a UV-5R+ and was trying to program it. I'm using the chirp-daily respository version.

USB Cable: : Prolific Technology Inc. pl2303 3-2:1.0: pl2303 device: /dev/ttyUSB0 UV-5R+ Firmware: BFB297 (as reported via power-on)

I get the typical unable to connect to radio, but when it is trying to clone I see on the HT the "Welcome...." message and then I get the timeout message.

As for the cable, it does seem to be full seated. I have pressed and held the plug in to make sure and get the same results.

First is there a debug mode I can turn on to capture the hand shake between the computer and the UV-5R+. I figure this would help the list.

Tony

If you visit here: http://www.miklor.com/uv5r/ I think you will get your problems sorted out in short order. Looks like by the driver device your using a linux OS. There are a few considerations but I think they are covered on the Miklor site.

I have looked the page over and I still don't seem to be getting it working. There is a 'cut out' image which it would be great if it could be enlarged (I tried and could not find out how to enlarge it).

Yes I'm running Ubuntu 13.04. Everything does seem to be find from that end.

And I did look at the debug.log file which is here:

Hello,

    I just purchase a UV-5R+ and was trying to program it. I'm using
    the chirp-daily respository version.

    USB Cable: : Prolific Technology Inc. pl2303 3-2:1.0: pl2303
    device: /dev/ttyUSB0
    UV-5R+ Firmware: BFB297 (as reported via power-on)

    I get the typical unable to connect to radio, but when it is
    trying to clone I see on the HT the "Welcome...." message and
    then I get the timeout message.

    As for the cable, it does seem to be full seated. I have
    pressed and held the plug in to make sure and get the same
    results.

    First is there a debug mode I can turn on to capture the hand
    shake between the computer and the UV-5R+. I figure this would
    help the list.


                                                    Tony

I agree with Milton. I would start with the Common Error Messages Page

http://www.miklor.com/uv5r/UV5R-ErrorMess.php

Also double check the date of your daily build. It should be 20131002 (yyyymmdd) or newer
