Up and running, hosted and stand alone.
Started with a fresh computer. Followed your instructions to select the com port and loaded the firmware from the hex file. All worked well.
Went back to my computer and the logger is working there also. I really don't know what the issue was but I thank you very much Andrew for your advice and patience too.
I have been using an Analog Discovery (original) almost since it came out. Digilent is a fine company with many great products. Keep it up!
Thanks again, John
