Hi Robert,

What do you mean by?

COM1 is in use for another application than the serial connection to the 41CL I hope, otherwise addressing COM2 in the manual command you wrote wouldn't make sense.

I use the CLWRITER/CLREADER pair in Win7 and got it working, even without the inter-char delay option. Possible problems may come from the COM port settings in Win7 hardware settings, accessible e.g. via the "device manager". Just check the settings there and adjust them to the CLWRITER commands.
Have you tried the other way with CLREADER? May be worthwhile to look if sending of data to the PC works. You can also use a terminal program and check if it receives any signal from the 41CL.
Eventually, you may check whether there are some hardware issues, for example to look at the wiring of the 41CL. Does the COM port in the PC work at all?

Just a few ideas.
Cheers
Frido
