It's always something!
You are correct, Mercury II use a NULL modem DB9 cable w/ Female-to-Female connectors. As raiman mentioned, you need to unzip both SW_Loader and 20070716_Mercury2_v0153 files first. Make sure turn the receiver off when you start the SW_loader application, the loader will prompt you to turn the receiver on later. Change to COM2 if COM1 does not work.
