Notes:
You can reduce battery drain by removing the crystal (X'tal) - just make sure you remember to put it back! 
Close the program and/or unplug and re-plug the cable after initial setup before the controller will function.
If this does not have the desired effect you may need to reboot your PC. 
Mac users can use the AlphaMacSoftware sim with these units.
