* **Alternate Connection Method:** If all else fails, try creating a connection using the longer two-step process. As usual select the correct COM Port, but instead of trying to connect go to the Firmware tab of OP Config and click the Snoop button. If a Snoop connection is successful you will see a notification to that effect at the bottom of the window, and the TCB will spit out some information in the console window. It may be a lot of information if the radio receiver is connected/ | * **Alternate Connection Method:** If all else fails, try creating a connection using the longer two-step process.

- | * **Windows Turning the COM Port Off:** If even the alternate connection method isn't working, check to make sure Windows isn't turning off your COM port in order to save power. You can check this setting by opening **Device Manager**, then expand the **USB Serial Bus controllers** heading. Here you will find one or more items called **USB Root Hub**. Right-click on each one and select Properties, then on the Power Management tab un-check the option that says "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power." | + | * {{ wiki: |
