I have spent hours on the phone with multicam but still nothing. I believe maybe we are missing parts for the machine to connect correctly. We have a serial cable plugged into the machine and the computer. It is telling me the handshaking cannot be detected and the dnc says inactive, Am I possibly missing some more cables that should be plugged into the machine and the computer because right now I only have the one. I am using windows 98 which is what I was told has to be used with this machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
