connecting to a PC -via modem? Message #1 Posted by Christof on 24 Jan 2003, 8:17 p.m. well, I've got an idea for data/program tranfer to a PC, but I'm not sur yet if it is possible in the full range. My HP75D and HP82718A now function wiht a modem. 300 baud- but it's a connection, potentially. (I have some older USR modems that support this) Once I find some software method to transfer files, I need to come up with a way to push data to and from a 41CX on HPIL to the 75D. I dont' have the dev or extended IO roms for the 41. Any HPIL experts out there want to take a stab? (yes, Christpoh, I should probably eventually just get an hpil ISA card. are you currently taking orders?)

Re: with the latest MS worm, 300 baud is fast Message #2 Posted by Christof on 25 Jan 2003, 4:00 a.m., in response to message #1 by Christof So, when I posted this, I thought that 300 baud would be a bit painful if I got it working right.... given the state of the net right now, a good, solid, secure 300 baud line might feel nice :)

Re: with the latest MS worm, 300 baud is fast Message #3 Posted by Emmanuel, Normandy (France) on 26 Jan 2003, 3:33 a.m., in response to message #2 by Christof I have an HP-75D with its pod too. I never use the modem because I have an HP82169A HP-IL/HP-IB interface and an HP82335A PC/HP-IB ISA card. I think you can use Procomm for DOS with a 300Bds speed. How is the RJ11 wire? How do you handeld it then? Thanks.

Re: with the latest MS worm, 300 baud is fast Message #4 Posted by Christof on 26 Jan 2003, 12:07 p.m., in response to message #3 by Emmanuel, Normandy (France) Emmanuel: with the right type of modem on the PC, you can do a direct link from modem to modem without having to run through the actual telco lines. so all one really needs is a 6 foot (in my case) piece of rj11 ended 2conductor cable. I'd forgotten about procomm over the past decade- I'm probably just going to use some version of *nix and minicoom, tip, or what have you. Of crouse, if I do get an HPIL ISA card I will go back to DOS on a machine (I have a plasma screen tochiba portable waiting for that eventuality) Chris: ick. looks like this one will be around for a while yet. but nimda hung around for a while , too.....
