[Premium-Rx] Micro-Controller for McKay Dymek DR-333 - Who does use one?

[hf_mobile @hotmail.com]

ERGO is a PC based software, as far as I understand. So this is not the way I want to make it.

Concerning RS232, there are RS232 converters available for the Arduino but one could use serial TTL directly from the Arduino if the 1488/1498 level converters inside the DR-333 are bypassed.

So, my question remains:

Who is using a micro controller like the Arduino for controlling the mcKay Dymek DR-333?

Hi:

The way I read that web page the computer control is for the DR-333 by means of the  RS-232 port.  Not the DR-33
