> Recently, we have been trying to get our ABI 377 (xl) Sequencer to talk to

> problem might be that the G4 no longer has a minidin AppleTalk port.
> Because of this, we were forced to use an Ethernet port and an Ethernet to
> AppleTalk converter. We are trying to locate tools to see if the Ethernet
> port is actually sending out characters, but at present cannot confirm.
> Thus, we have theorized that the ABI software cannot determine where to
> send the commands to the instrument.

> We called PE/ABI and they were of very limited help. They had us check to
> ensure that the "modem" port was being used, which it was. So, we are
> currently at a loss of how to set this up on a G4.
>
> If you have any suggestions that you think might help, please let us know.
> One other thing that we should relay is that this computer is to be hooked
> up to a network in the future, so it has a second Ethernet card in it.
> However, we have tried both Ethernet card connectors with the ABI software
> and neither work.

> Thanx in advance for any help you can provide,
