Hello Javier, i just had a look at the interface guide of the 9800 because there is a table with the differences between both readers. As far as I can see there is no real functional difference between them. The 9800 has some more detailed settings for acquisition time but except of this they support the same things. So as long as the 9780 works the same way as the 9800 does, which i assume because I've not worked with a 9780 yet, there should be no difference with which you work. Our emulation is not working in a physical way so it doesn't emulate the characteristics of a reader like how it performs in different environments. So as long as you just need tags to be delivered you can use our emulation. If you your application is depended on the reader name, like it just works with a 9780 then this is easy to fix: Start our GUI, go to the Reader Settings Tab and change the ReaderType value. If you want to have permanent changes then you have to get our source code to change the XML File where these settings are stored. It is in Properties/Reader/AlienReaderGeneralDefaults.xml In future releases there will be a way to save these values and edit the XML files without getting the source code. The reason why there are RXTX libraries is because there will be support for serial based readers in one of the next releases which will be released soon. If you want to contribute to our project feel free to post bugs in the bug tracker or send a mail to the mailing list about what you think of Rifidi. We are always happy about some feedback. :) Bye, Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
