Hi @tstenner thanks for your answer. Using the arduino sounds very interesting and the DB25 terminal adapter you linked looks straight forward. This would be a low-cost solution indeed (and it would work under every OS I assume).
Two questions:
- Would you mind sharing the wiring of the Arduino Leonardo with that said adapter?
- Have you performed timing tests?
Browsing through your other answers in this forum, I also found this topic, in which an adapter by the BlackBoxToolKit company is also mentioned: https://www.blackboxtoolkit.com/usbttl.html
BBTK says this one can be used under Linux as well, albeit their “validation software” only works under Windows apparently. Perhaps this would be yet another solution.
