OK, all is fine now, after updating the driver with the latest W7 driver from the previous post.
BTW From the USB component help screen you can click a link which gets you to the outdated driver that only installs in Vista compatibility mode and seems unreliable in W7.
Maybe that link should go to the new driver...

I have a question on the EICO-28 (PIC).
Downloaded the 'data sheet' but it doesn't tell me"
- where is that LED connected to, which port;
- can I still use any of the 4 timers, or does the USB module use a timers resource?

thanks,

Jan,

According to the diagram in the ECIO data sheet on page 3, the LED is connected to RA5 on ECIO28P or RE2 on ECIO40P.

Regarding the timers, I found no references to the timers in the Matrix supplied USB code for Flowcode 4 or 5. The Microchip data sheet of the 18F2455 does not refer to the timers in the USB section, so all of them should be available for your own use.

Regards,

Jac
