[QUOTE="Herr R aus B, post: 219043, member: 62807"] Grmbl... What I didn't realize is the following. Using your driver, the option to switch on/off the PC (or putting it in rsp. waking it up from standby mode) using the remote is gone. This obviously is done using the MHC software shipped with the VFD. Of course this software can't be run, when your driver's accessing the VFD :-) It'd be interesting to find out abut all the possible command codes that can be sent to the VFD over the serial port. There's a guy here called Dero who obviously did that and coded his own [URL="http://danielrolf.com/D-HD160XT-C~Home.html"]solution[/URL]. I already asked him, whether he'd share his results. No reply so far. I also wrote an email to VL System, but I doubt that they would hand out any documentation to me... I'll see whether I can provide some sniff logs regarding the communication between the MHC software and the VFD. But I doubt that I'll really would find out, what is what.
