I found two of these things at a garage sale today for $15 total. They are electronic LED signs, but they have an rs232 port and can be hooked to a pc! Once I noticed the phone jack that was really a serial port on the side, I knew I had to have them to use with Premise.
Anyone developed a driver for these things? The model numbers on the one's I bought are: box says 1036-1211, back of sign says 213C-1 and is made by Adaptive.
What I want to do with it so far: give status of lighting and volume levels, selected component, sound field, subwoofer level, temperature, clock and show what is playing in vista media center.
I'm not sure on how to attempt the last one. I'm hoping the uPnP driver I saw for Premise will also show the title of the show playing in media center, else I may have to wait until a better networked based media center control program comes out and link that ip/port to a virtual UDS-10 in Premise. Any activex controls for working with uPnP or media center that I could use too?
