Spektrum smart esc programmer card won't connect to esc.

[Trevor Park Jones]

I installed the Spektrum app on my laptop and did a firmware update. Connected the programming card to my Arrma Typhon 3s with blx100 esc. Programming card turns on and displays firmware version then when I press any button it displays Connecting esc and just stays there. I believe I have everything connected correctly. I'm using the provided wire connections. Yet I can't get passed that screen. Any help would be very much appreciated!

I don’t believe the BLX100 is considered a Spektrum ESC so you can’t use the Spektrum LCD card - supposedly the HobbyWing LED programming cards work.

Oh snap! That would certainly put a wrinkle in the operation. Thank you for responding. At least I won't continue to wonder what I'm doing wrong.
