And success! This is what you want to see happening when you turn on your WARI software and watch it start up. Of course the Adaptronic ECU has to be powered on and your serial connection must be working. I was able to find out which COM port my serial adapter was using. Once properly installed you should be able to view your serial device in the device manager and find which com port it's using from it's properties. Mine was COM port 8 so once I opened the program I selected "Setup Serial Port" > hit the COM 8 and away it went initializing the ECU.
From here on out I'll cover my setting up of the software in the next thread. I hope this helps some people out there.
