Reply to "Skunkware and Alge S4"

You need:

2 seperate serial ports; one for S4 in, one for display out.

You connect the DB9 of your split display cable to the usb to serial adapter (that you are going to buy) The "printer" end is not used. Tape it up.

Use the RS-232 port. A "blue" cable with the 5 pin smiley DIN on one end and the DB9 female on the other.

This software is 16 bit. It will work with Windows 95. Do yourself a favor and use Windows 2000 or XP pro. DO NOT USE Windows 98!!!!

Program 3, HP mode on the S4

Not really. The "help" file is some what helpful. This software was designed for NASTAR. It really only wants to deal with bibs 1-999. Use the companion excel file if you want to do any prereg type data handling.

Remember that the ONLY way to get "finish" impulses on the S4 is through the DIN plugs for photocell or the DB25 connector
