Reply to "Legacy System Utility V2.0 & Mac"

I had to get a section of shielded cable to finish my setup.  I have a TPC in the mix and in adding the LCS WiFi the TPC lost the place to plug it's DB9 connection.  This is an original TPC300 from IC Controls plus a DB9 cable I bought from them.  The SER2 has both screw terminals and a DB9.  But poor placement of the DB9 on the SER2 made it impossible to fully engage the DB9.  And not wanting to destroy the IC Controls cable I went out and got a new section of shielded cable and connected screw terminals to screw terminals.  

Once everything was connected I started testing some more.  I had no problem connecting iCAB from my iPhone 6 (iOS 9).  But my iPad 2 (also iOS 9) reported it could not locate the WiFi module after repeated (5-6) attempts.  I force killed all open iPad programs, rebooted the iPad (hold power and home button until apple logo appears) deleted the iCab app and then reinstalled the iCAB app. The iCAB app was able to connect on the iPad.  But even after all this I still couldn't get the LCS Layout app to connect ON THE VERY SAME iPAD.  I even completely deleted the app and downloaded again but no love.  It probably took almost 10 more tries and then the app finally connected.  Now all appears well.  I have the LCS WiFi connecting to my home network so I'm sure that makes things more complicated.  But if the iCAB app on the same iPad had already found the LCS WiFi it seems odd it took so many more tries for LCS Layout app to do the same.  But now that everything (iCAB, LCS Layout and Legacy Utility) has connected and I have a DHCP reservation on the LCS WiFi module so it gets the same IP address all these apps already have cached, hopefully things stay solid now.
