Spectra Busy Line Locked?

Trying to program a dash mount spectra astro. When F3 com port test is keyed I get "serial bus failure:busy line locked", when F3 is keyed it also re-boots the radio back to the self test start up. Using DOS V6 rss with a home brew cable, have the 12v lead as well, verified the cable connections on a test fixture and it shows good. The contro head buttons seem to function fine, I can dim, change channels, mon, scan etc. Any ideas?

Thank you

UPDATE
Well, being new to this I think I am using the wrong RSS, using R06.00.05, this is an astro spectra so I may be using the wrong RSS, correct RSS?

UPDATE

Fixed, was using wrong RSS, neeted the astro, sorry for the panic, new to programming.

You are probably not using the right RSS.

You need ASTRO RSS or Astro Spectra CPS. CPS would be the easier option if you have a modern Windows based computer.
