    How did you set it up?  Wired?  Type of interface?

    Some more details would help to see what is going on.

    You  might want to review the USB interface guide:  http://www.flexradio.com/downloads/usb-cable-interface-guide-pdf/

    Hi Thurman

    I would love to, but I would be taking away work from the team in support.  :)  You could also log a case in the support page and they will jump in.

    I hope you didn't use the USB port on the back of the amp. That is not intended to interface with the Flex. It's intended to control the amp with a PC. You need a FTDI USB to serial adapter. Configure the amp for kenwood protocol and connect it using a serial cable... At least I think that's how it is supposed to operate from reading the manual (I only have a 91B, sorry).

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
