It's a nice product, but run under DOS! I'm newbie with Xppro: Does Dos software run right under XP? -----Message d'origine----- De : pic microcontroller discussion list [mailto:PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU] De la part de Paul James E.

It's inexpensive, works well for it's purpose, and is simple. It uses the parallel printer port on your computer. Add a few wires, some clips at the end, a D25 connector at the other end, and the software. Depending on your port, you can have a s many as 16 traces at once. The faster your computer, the faster the setup will sample. With a lowly 166 Mhz Pentium notebook, I can get into the 100's of ns with little trouble. If I use fewer traces, I can get somewhat faster accesses. For the money, it's a bargain in my book. I have used it several times on PIC projects, and it's been a big help. Anyway, just food for thought.
