Hi Clemente,



With these settings we got our Calcomp Drawing Board III (34240)
succesfull running with S.u.S.e. Linux 5.1 and GRASS4.2.1

1) edit /etc/inittab to: S1:23:off:/sbin/mingetty ttyS1 9600

2) chmod 666 /dev/ttyS1

3) cd /usr/grass4.2/etc/dig_drivers
chown root */*
chmod 06775 */*

4) edit .../grass4.2/etc/digcap :

we use the cc95f5_16 Digitizer driver
so the entry in digcap should look like this
calcomp_f5:/dev/ttyS1:cc95f5_16:calcomp digitizer Binary 5

5) edit .../grass4.2/etc/digitzers/cc95f5_16:

type some wait commands like this

startrun
{
wait = 0.1
send = \027%^5\013 #set to format 5
send = \027%R\013
}
etc....                      

6) the settings on the Digitizer tablett for bank A and B

         1       2       3       4       5       6       7       8      
9       10      11      12      13      14      15      16      17     
18
A        1       1       0       0       1       0       1       1      
1       1       0       0       0       1       0       1       0      
1
B        0       0       1       1       0       0       0       0      
0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0       0

Good luck,

Holger Fell
