Does the embosser have any kind of human-readable responses to any input you could give it? or can you do anything to it to cause it to generate any output you could read with a terminal program? I have, for example, a X10 controller that we use mostly to turn our furnace on and of

Hello Martin All I can tell you for sure is that the embosser works. We've been wracking our collective brains for a while to find a way to test the port out; but as we have no other serial devices it's somewhat difficult. Lynne On 17 Oct 2011, at 17:24, Martin McCormick wrote: There

There is almost an endless list of ways things can go wrong regarding serial ports. Do you have any way to break the problem in to smaller pieces such as verify that A. The serial port really is sending and receiving? B. The embosser works when conected with another known-good system. Do yo

Hi Chris Ah, right, well that's the end of that one then. We don't use the automatic locations, preferring to keep things more logically organised. Gordon On 17 Oct 2011, at 15:46, chris hallsworth wrote: Not with Ninite no as it is completely automated and silent. =

Hi Chris I honestly don't know about the Windows version. If you say it's accessible, that's good enough for me. As for making movies on the Mac, yes - that would be a logical recourse. I just wanted to know if it was possible under Windows so that I had so means of capturing both what I am

Hi all Anybody happen to have tried one of these beasties with Windows 7? I'm asking because we're trying to get our Braille embosser to function and, although the serial port shows up as present, no matter what I do I can't get any joy from the embosser. We're using an Index Everest DS, or s

Hi all OK, this has my curiosity. I'm not sure whether there's a webcam built into our little NetBook or not. I would be surprised if there is, to be utterly honest. Nevertheless here's my question. Is there an accessible movie making application that comes bundled with Windows 7 Ultimate?
