R-DAS tiny WinCE software? - revisited & continued (RE: John DeMar)

Hi again, John:

Contacted FTDI . . . they don't support WinCE 3.0. and said they don't
have the capabilities to do it. I'm back to square one.
My hardware is an ( in the sun visible) Casio Cassiopeia EM500 pocket
PC. The hardware says it has "detected USB cable on COM7". The R-DAS gui
also finds COM7, but says no R-DAS on COM7. The Casio doesn't power-up
the R-DAS tiny. So I battery powered the tiny . . . still no connection.
Any more ideas? I appreciate your help.

Regards,
Craig

 G'day everyone:

 
 

 
 I would like to use my handheld PCs (WinCE) with the R-DAS
tiny, but

 
 present GUI does not support USB. If RS232 serial to USB
adapter exists,

 
 it could possibly be used without software changes. Many USB to
serial

 
 adapters exist, but they come with drivers for the WinXT, etc.
host not

 
 the other-way-around. Any suggestions, ideas, etc. will be
greatly

 
 appreciated.

 
 

 
 I really want to hear that new WinCE GUI with USB is on the way
. . .

 
 soon. Maybe, just a USB driver patch.

 
 

 
 Best regards,

 
 Craig
