programing zx-24r

Thanks for your quick response. Yes I made sure it was set for the correct device and port. I am using a usb to serial adapter and checked my device manager and it's operating properly and I have been using it for years now. could it be that it's not compatible with the zx-24r but OK on the zx-24p
