twilo123 Active Member Nov 14, 2008 #1 some real basic questions 1. what kind of cable do i need for this model? the connector looks more like rj than typical rs232 2. will it output data in real time via the port according to the serial protocol api or do i still need to go through footprints api?

Click to expand... Didn't they send a cable with Footprints? Its a special RS-232 cable fits it. And no, as far as I have heard, you have to use Footprints, but you can export data from that.
