For those who connect to downspouts, how are you doing this? If you use as is, doesn't is spatter terribly? Or are you cutting into black screen?

We used an elbow, cut an opening in the black screen to fit the end and ran it directly into the rain barrel. Because we live in an area that experiences winter we empty our barrell in the Fall and store it until Spring. We then redirect the downspout to its normal flow. Works Great.

If you don't want any splatter you would cut into the screen. I have a rain chain coming down from the eave and it does splatter some in a really hard rain.

My rain barrel is about 3 ft from the downspout. I have a length of gutter running at a small downward angle from the end of the downspout to the barrel and this slows the water down and minimizes splatter.

I set mine beneath the gutter on my patio cover, removed the downspout part of the gutter, added a rain chain to extend from the opening in the gutter down to the barrel, placed a fish weight on the end of the chain where it meets the barrel top (to keep the chain from shifting around with the wind or force of the falling water) and then I enjoy watching the rain travel right down the chain into the barrel. I did not make any holes in the barrel screen. There may be some splatter in a hard rain and when the barrel is full, but it is not really a problem.

Our house has a area where three parts of the roof meet and flows down into a central area. That is where we placed the rain collector. We have some spatter, but not enough to prevent this from filling up very fast. We have not only not customized, damaged or cut into the black screen we actually added a piece of window screen under it. We just cut that into a circle as wide as the top of the rain barrel and place it under the black screen. This collects extra roof and tree debris and keep it free from mosquitos.

I just let the downspout run onto the top of the screen. Come on you are talking about rain here. It's outside who cares about spatter. Really!!

Were you able to resolve your constant cable modem resetting? I ran into the same issue with my SB6120 + ASUS router (flashed w/ Tomato) + Charter, and moved to AT&T; U-verse. Now I'm debating moving back to Charter, but would like to know if this is still going to come up again. Thanks.

What seems to be happening? How do you have them configured? Provide more specific details and I can possibly assist.

Doesn't work for me either. I looked at the manual and can't find an answer. Sorry.

The downspout actually sits above the mesh screen; an open end. When it rains, the debris is stopped by the screen but the flow goes into the barrel. I was unnecessarily worried that the water would pour over the sides: it does not. I am very happy with the performance of the unit and the ease of assembly. I am handicapped and elderly and had no problem setting the whole thing up.

When I emailed NG, the person responded that their software works with the 60CSx. Just one week ago I first tried to download the maps into it and found that it can not be done. I emailed back a complaint and they indicated, as you did, that it only will transfer routes and waypoints. This screwed up my opportunity to use it on a vacation from which I just returned. So, I guess I'd better change my review so I don't give someone else the same misinformation.Sorry for any confusion. I was mislead by NG.

You are awesome! I have been trying like cray to fix this issue and that was the missing key. Finally, it is working perfect for me. Thank you so much, I ca't tell you how frustrated I was trying to figure this out. WOW! Thanks again! ;o) My hero for the day!

I am having the same problem but also haven't found a solution. Curious if you find anything.

They are recommended that you run them down the inside of the downspout. Either run them down in a single run or loop them without the cables touching on another. Search it on the internet for descript instructions.

Hey! Thanks for the reply!Just give it a try and let me know if it works. I still haven't bought it (because of the cover flow issue) but if that method works, then I'm definitely getting it :D

I'm having exactly the same problem. I can get the menu to display (the DMPort menu), but no video or pictures.Interested in any feedback from anyone who has tried this.

So for those of you that got the bump to engage. What did you do when it finally worked? I have tried all kinds of crazy things. Tempted to return. GRRRR

I agree with kitopila on this. Kitopila,how do you do the setting to run it that way? I tried and it did not work. Please let me know, thank you!

I just set this up on a Windows 7 pc the other day (it had been running on an old xp machine), and it is a pain, but it does work with freestyler. Did you get the disc that comes with it? That small disc had the drivers for me. Then I downloaded freestyler online. I am thinking that the directions on the driver is something like "install first" and then plug in. Sorry I wasn't more helpful, but it will run freestyler once the drivers are set up.

I had the same problem, ended up returning it. I couldn't get anything to display at all, not even the menu, so it wasn't a game compatibility issue.

As with the other respondent I have never used the app you are asking about but I have used it with both Rev, Rev Lite, & Dash Commander and haven't had a problem. It seems to work pretty well with anything that provides a general ELM interface. I have most of my settings to default although I did have to setup the connection as far as IP and such the first time and I believe I gave those settings in my actual product review, if not let me know and I'll look an see what they were and pass them along.
