Re: Need Help connecting Toyota 830/820 to PC, What software Do I need?
Ok, well I have serial cables, 7 pin that came with the machine. {Its actually the 25 pin, but there is only 7 left in it...}
And I found a cable that is 9 pin {From my COMM 1 port on the back of my PC} to the 25 pin serial for the back of the machine.
I am having issues getting my free Embird program to talk to my machine. {I know that the comm used for that program says Baradun, I was hoping it would work anyways haha}
My issue is buying a program for a few thousand, and finding out it doesn't send to my machine.
I see that lots of programs {Mostly all of them} SAVE to all file types, like .dst, .10o, etc. The question is sending to my machine.
I think that in theory, they should be able to communicate, and hooking it up through a serial cable would be easy as that.
I am looking for more knowledgeable opinions, however.
If you run an old 830, how are you connecting? With a specific Toyota Program? Or simply a digitizing program like Viking 3d, Pulse, Wilcom, or even Embird?
Thanks!
Oh and thanks for the help Caffeine, You help me every day! , Oh wait thats my coffee!
