Then you'll need to have it plugged into the relay box

OK. I got the RA + board.
Installed it and plugged it into the relay box.
I got power n the head unit and the LCD is on.
Plugged the TTL-USB connection in to the head unit and my laptop.
I loaded the Wifi Test code and tried to upload it.

I got the following error...

"Serial port Com 3 is already in use. Try quitting any programs that may be using it."

I don't know of anything that would be using it.

I seem to remember having this problem at one time awhile ago. I have multiple usb ports on my laptop so I think I moved the TTL-USB cable to a different USB port and it started working.
