Any experience connecting HP50G with MacOSX using HPConnect?
Message #1 Posted by Miguel Saiz on 21 Sept 2007, 2:33 p.m.

I had downloaded HPConnect (0.91). I had tried to connect to my HP50G but HPConnect does not respond. Do I need to set some flags or run a key combination? (I had set wired transfer flag, and anything happen, no connect still),

Thanks for any help,

Miguel

Hi Tocayo*,

The only thing I can tell you is that I followed the instructions as they say and all worked fine. Be sure that flag 33 is not set, then right-shift, release and then right arrow cursor key.

I tested in OS X in and old G3 laptop...sorry, iBook.

* For others reading this: Tocayo = same fist name as mine. Do not think that his name is "tocayo" :-)

Of course you have to run the application before calling the Xserver in the calculator. When the Xserver is running, press Connect in HPConnect. There is not any autorun here...

Regards,

Miguel
