Yes, I use a USB-A to Micro-USB. When the cable is connected between the 450 and a PC when you press Clean once the PC should create a COMM port.

I picked up a second 450 and a new cable. Still getting the same results. Scooba reports firmware version, battery condition, & etc. But will not take any input from computer. What terminal program are you using and what settings on the baud rate, parity and so forth are you using?
Thanks Cactus

Something I failed to mention is that you will need the iRobot Scooba450 update installer program that is used to build a COM port. Send me your email (in a PM) and I'll send you a copy to install on your Win pc.

The file is an .exe type file and to send it I change the .exe to .txt so it will send to you. When you get the file, change the text from .txt back to .exe

I sent you a private message with my email address in it. (I hope!) If you didn't get it I will try again.
Thanks again!
