[TI-H] Re: TI-83 Parallel link cable




Ok, first of all, my serial cable is acting weird. And second, I don't have 
my parallel cable anymore, stripped some parts for the serial cable. If I 
connect my serial cable to my computer the LED works perfectly indicating 
that the circuit is OK (Right?) But if I try to send a file, it doesn't get 
a link, and the calculator begins to run VERY slowly (It practicly freezes) 
I used the schematic on http://home.wanadoo.nl/ti83world/cables_make.html 
and I tried sending a file and receiving the screen with both the TI proggie 
and the CAL program. Anyone have any idea on how to solve this problem?
