Either way it just looks like a serial connection and can easily be done using serial classes _________________ Regards Chris Musty Specialised Technologies Pty Ltd http://www.specialised.net.au ----------------------------------------------- Latest RB Enterprise (12r2) on Win 8 Pro, Ubuntu 12.04 - ahh the pressure I am about to MAC it up also!

There are things like baud rate etc to set up and which serial port to use. You should reference http://docs.realsoftware.com/index.php/Serial for all (most) of the info you need. _________________ Regards Chris Musty Specialised Technologies Pty Ltd http://www.specialised.net.au ----------------------------------------------- Latest RB Enterprise (12r2) on Win 8 Pro, Ubuntu 12.04 - ahh the pressure I am about to MAC it up also!
