[Christian Kernbach]

Calcomp Digitizer 34240 (Drawing Board III)

With these settings and modifications we got our Calcomp Drawing Board III
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
