[DSP-10] Starting Up My DSPx

[Paul Black]

Thanks Roger,

I run ezfast 1 uhf3x.exe g     It prints up quite a few FF's and then 
says Loaded C:\DSP\UHF3X.EXE and Go at address 0

When I then run uhfa 1
It comes back with the following:

No uhfa.cfg present, using default values
Downloading DSP pointers...
Timeout error in obtaining DSP pointer table. Either UHF3.exe is prior 
to 2.0 or DSP is not responding

I' using version v3.17 of uhfa.exe and a DSPx

Any ideas on how to check this problem?

Regards.  Paul
