Not receiving live data from Megajolt lite junior.

Good afternoon to all,
I have been registered on this site, for many years, I have a look from time to time, this is my 2nd time posting.
I converted my Challenger E Type Jaguar to the MEGAJOLT system in 2013.
The Challenger E Type, is a fibreglass replica of the E Type Jaguar series 1 OTC. The 4.2L straight 6 engine , using triple SU carbs, is from an XJ6 Series 2, The gearbox, is a 5 speed ,that comes from a XJ6 Series 3. Front and rear axles are from a XJ6 Series 2.
I have owned the car since 2005.
The car was last tuned on a rolling road in 2015, the car drives and works fine, at first there seemed to be no problem with the ignition system. In the near future, I am looking to replace the HT leads to Yamaha coil on plugs, I have looked into it, it appears it can be done by using 2 EDIS 6 Modules. But before I start to convert over, I want to retrieve the ignition map and store it on laptop then onto a memory stick. I think I have stored the ignition map on the laptop, it a simple "save as"?
I have noticed I am not getting any live data, apart from the load data, that changes when I rev the engine ,apart from the load data changing, all that is shown on my laptop is a frozen image of the ignition map. I have attached a photo, hopefully some of you tech guys can help me?
I have checked the connections from the RJ11 male plug to the DB9 female plug, all seem good.
I have checked the USB/DB9 serial male lead , my laptop states, the USB/serial lead is good and that the laptop has an up to date USB driver, for the USB/Serial lead.
Many Thanks in Advance.
Simon
