For the benefit of anyone who is asked by technical support what version of Index they have. Version III embossers talk when switched on, and have FOUR ports on the back. Serial, Parallel, USB and Network (RJ45). Version II embossers also talk, but only have TWO ports, Serial and Parallel. Version I embossers do NOT talk, and also only have two ports.

If you are interested, please read on. There are some special requirements for the initial testing. First, you will need to have a Version 3 Index Embosser. Ideally a Basic S or D, or an Everest, preferably with version 10.25 or above firmware. Second, there is a need to upload a specially created Moon Font to the embosser. This will overwrite the existing letter graphic character set already in the embosser, so if you need letter graphics, this may not be for you. Third. At this stage I would like to have one or two sighted testers, since there may be a need to take precise measurements, and also reposition some of the dot positions. If you meet the above requirements and are interested, please contact me OFF LIST at george@xxxxxxxxxx George Bell. ____________________________________________________________ ____________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
