Yuma 2 2.4Ghz Radio Driver Problem

Hi,

I recently had a Trimble RST655 and Yuma2 with SCS900 3.70 added to my tool set. I've been using an older Yuma 1 with Trimble Access and so far the SCS900 software appears to be a big step backward in terms of usability and flexibility. Does anyone have the same general impression or do I need to learn more about it before I arrive at a conclusion?ÿ

On top of all this, there appears to be a hardware or driver issue with the bolted-on 2.4Ghz radio (FTDI/Cirronet). The device will work all day if I don't use sleep. When I do use sleep, the radio stops working completely. It shows up in Device Manager as an (unknown usb device) and indicates windows has stopped the device.

I have updated the Tablet to the latest Windows 7 os that Trimble provides, which is v1.0.0.14.?ÿ

To me this has every indication of a driver issue but I cannot find any other driver than the ones automatically installed by the Trimble Installation Manager.

Would it be worth a shot to try Trimble Access on this device? Does Trimble Access use different drivers? Has anyone had similar issues with this hardware configuration?

Thanks

I've not used your instrument or software but I used two Yuma 2's with Trimble Access and an S6 & S7 for several years and never had an issue with the 2.4Ghz radios after the DC went to sleep and got woke up.
