CFA735-TML-KR1 with PIC18F4520

I have based all of my code on this post:

CFA635 with PIC host #18

I am using MPLAB v.8.91 with the Microchip C18 compiler on a Windows 7 64-bit Pro machine.

I am powering the LCD through H1 +5Vdc & Ground and have pins 1 and 2 connected to the PIC18F4520 Tx (pin 25) and Rx (pin 26) according to the pin-out on page 32 of the CFA735-TML-KR1 datasheet.

I am able to send commands with the 635_WinTest software but have not connected both the external power supply and USB at the same time. I have not cleared J10 on the CFA735-TML-KR1.

When I send the "Hello World" packet listed in the aforementioned thread, the CFA735-TML-KR1 does not display text nor does it respond. I have verified that I am getting the correct CrC code (0xE50E). My code is listed below. Thank you for your assistance.
