Connections

RS232 port with FIFO buffers

Operating system

Windows XP or 7 (x86 or x64)

The digit grouping symbol of currency must always differ from the number’s decimal symbol. Having

equal symbols is not valid (not just in this situation, but also in other situations) and will probably cause

other problems as well. See Microsoft’s KB198098.

Issues may arise with certain Regional and Language Options on Windows XP when the system

language, as set under Control Panel >> Regional and Language Options, is set to a language not

supported by Jet 4.0 (see Microsoft’s KB913296).

To avoid communication errors, it is advised to use a serial (RS232) port with hardware buffer overrun

detection. Few USB-RS232 converters have this feature, but e.g. the Digitus part no. DA-70156 has.
