[wxqc] Unable to communicate

[Eleanor Linkkila]

I tried to control alt del to see if anything else was running but doesn't appear so.  In the trouble shooting they also talk about communication ports being locked up.  How would I cycle power as they say to both he computer and the console.  Rebooting does that to computer, doesn't it?  How could I do that to the console?  
   
  Thanks, Eleanor, CW7448

  Hi Eleanor,

Are you trying to run both WeatherLink and VWS at the same time? Only 
one application can run at a time as they compete for the COM port. If 
you want to run VWS, you do not need to load the WeatherLink software. 
All you need is the little WeatherLink hardware connector and you are 
toss the WeatherLink CD-ROM. Don't forget to load the latest version of 
VWSAPRS too.
