Emulate a computer keyboard to control a MiniDisc Recorder
Sep 27 2007 | 3:58 pm
Hi Maxers,
Everything is in the title: I'd like to control a MiniDisc Recorder (SONY MDS-E10) via the keyboard port but with a computer instead of a keyboard...
I'm wondering if I can emulate keyboard datas (with a serial port for instance). I've got a Keyspan USB to serial adapter.
Any idea? How to wire stuff together? What should I send to the serial object?
Thanks in advance for your answers...
Benoit.
