And Dialog box shows up with the error.

Looking at the code (driver) around line 1294.

It treats the 281 as a 271. I did switch to TM-271 and it worked.

I would recommend
1) put up a dialog box to tell the user to switch to a TM271
2) accept the 281 ID and continue with the 271 code

Correct 2) Accept the 271 ID and continue with the 271 code although a 281 was selected
