the terminal window pops up but displays nothing
the PROGRAM STATE light on the RC (EDURC in this case) stays orange
if I turn off then on the RC it's still orange

However, if I download the code from my laptop then use the shop computer IFI_LOADER to display the terminal window only (no download) it works fine.

Anybody seen this or have a suggestion? I will try a different com port when I go in later this morning, the computer has two.

Is the OI on and either tethered or in radio contact to the RC? The prgram won't run unless the two are in contact, meaning the program state LED will be orange.
