Hi,
 
today i got a call from a customer. He is using a special (programmable) keyboard, which is connected via v.24 interface directly to a barcode printer. the keyboard runs a 12 line basic program, which waits for an input from the keybord. This input then is sent with severeal controlcodes via V.24 to the printer. Now the keyboard is broken and  it takes about 12 weeks before the new one arrives here.
 
So my question is, how complicated is it to write some code in rev to communicate with the V.24 interface to sent the data from the rev app?
 
Is there anyone on the list, who has done something similar?
 
Regards,
 
Matthias
