It only matters in that you're asking to communicate with it from your computer. You need to make sure that the communication is using the same language. Otherwise, don't expect anything sensible, e.g., you talk French and it talks Italian equals nobody gets dinner. Odds are the baud rate, etc., is 57600, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit. That's been standard for about 8 years. Start there.. And, what port is it on? Do you know? If not, you'll have to go fishing for it. PS: Here's a hint. If you have serial speech, that excludes one address. Chris writes: > From: "Chris" <chris at mailvision.ath.cx> > > OK, now you're speaking my language...
