Funny thing about Techno controls. They're all basically the same, from ISA bus to pci bus. The older machines are based on the lm628 chipset, the newer ones on the lm629, and from a programmer's standpoint, well, one object model covers all units. My own application works on LC anything, and ISA anything, with only minor port reassignments for the newer models. Timewise, you may be better off contacting
Techno for a new control card. If you ever feel like selling the thing, it's a bit on the bulky side and I prefer the smaller LC3024 series but I may have a buyer.
