Eztrends For Windows 10

[Blanchefle Strycker]

Onewould still need to get the JPI program running for downloading the data? I had a hell of a time trying to make this work on a non-Windows machine without a serial port. Finally, I found an older laptop running Windows XP and a serial port.

On my JPI (an EDM830) you just plug a USB stick into the display and dump the data into memory with no program or PC necessary. Then stick the USB stick into your 64-bit PC and upload to Savvy. Easy peasy.

I like the Savvy interface and that's what I use to look at the data. As Wishboneash mentioned, I still need to down-load and my JPI700 only has an old serial port on it. This is perhaps JPI's way of forcing us to upgrade to the USB version....

The issue is not likely 64-bit, it's the serial interface. I'm on my second 64-bit laptop retrieving data from my EDM-700, and I just plug in the JPI-provided cable to the provided EDM-700 port, then plug the serial-port end of that cable into a Keyspan by Tripp Lite USA-19HS USB-to-serial adapter, then plug the USB end into my laptop, and it all works great. (I tried a couple of other adapters, and for reasons beyond my willingness to figure out, they didn't work, but this one did.) You can find one of these adapters on Amazon or probably lots of other places. They cost $32 or so. Not CB-conforming, but it works. Good luck!

I have EZtrends operational on my Windows 10 64 bit system - just had to setup the compatibility options to do so. The newer the version of Windows the easier it is it seems they make setting the compatibility options.

But as mentioned, except for the LeanFind function in EzTrends which I really liked, I otherwise find the Savvy Analysis app on the web superior - but I use it daily and have become pretty adept at using it. It allows me to view multiple graphs at a time and the Gami spread button is nearly as good at Eztrends LeanFind function and it provides additional niceties such as the Delta function and Rate function. And perhaps the best feature of all is you can share your data with anyone plus you get a professional help with analysis as many people do. There are lots of Mooney pro subscribers!

You are correct. The problem was caused by the Keyspan driver on my new laptop. A combination of updated driver and running the laptop in windows XP compatability mode solved my problem for both EZ Trends and EZ Save.

I like some features of Savvy but I don't think it allows loading multiple flights like EZTrends does. It is often useful to have 2 or more flights graphed side by side to see changes. (It is possible Savvy does that as well, I've looked around as little and have not found it.)
