I was using a 530R with 2.62 until I recently upgraded both to SurvCe3.0 and a Sokkia CX. I had some issues but generally it worked fine.
Communications can always be a little temperamental with most electronics.
Are you using Bluetooth or a cable?
I had a small bluetooth adapter that worked well once communications was established.
It sounds like you are getting only one way communication(sending but not receiving)
With those communications issues I always do a full reset, and turn my Total Station off/on. You have probably done that as it the standard response for most problems.
If you are using a cable connection make sure the communications on the instrument match the data collector, baud rates etc., This also applies with a bluetooth adapter but the settings have to be made to the adapter via a PC.
In the instrument setup in SurvCe I found the Sokkia Series 20/20k worked for me .
Good luck.
