S-Plot not seeing data as Lite does? Help?

Hi, I need some help here,
I don't have a huge amount of Stamp equipment here, nor a large number of
test PCs.
I've been getting comments for Stamp Plot Pro users that it isn't seeing
data the way Lite does.
One problem seems to be when they are using the Carrier Board or the
self-assembled kits.
Serial data is serial data. Pro does a bit more when comes to being able to
set DTR, RTS, etc, but that can be disabled. Other than that, Pro and Lite
have the same COM core.
I've just verified that using a single wire on P0 (and a common ground) and
SEROUT, I can successfully send data and have it captured and plotted by
Pro.
Anyone care to give suggestions to the part-time programmer who brought you
StampPlot Lite?
Jon????
Free Licenses to Pro for anyone with a good cause/solution!
Thanks,

help users out, and proven once again.
In Pro, DTR is by default ON. On some stamp set-ups this holds ATN
high causing the stamp to lock up. So, simple fix for the users.
Thanks Al! Tell me if you need a license, though I can't believe I
haven't sent one to you in the past.
