I recently bought a 200mm M-Sure horizontal scale and then just bought the M-Sure remote readout. I also bought a 5-pin Mini USB to connect them. The 200mm scale works fine, but when connected to it (and even when it's connected to nothing) the remote readout just registers a series of 8s, as in the photo. I've tried the remote with new batteries and it's exactly the same, attached to the 200mm scale or unattached. I've tried pressing and holding buttons, and nothing happens - it doesn't even seem to switch off.
Am I overlooking something or is it just DoA?
Thanks for any thoughts, Chris
