A scoring machine that speaks German only

Just received a Disag RM IV, works perfectly but refuses to talk to any computer, for the simple reason that maker sells the system only in German.

Anybody has ever seen or heard about some English speaking system to link this machine to computers? There are USB and serial connectors on it.

Thanks

When we got the first target reading machine in AUS, I gleefully unpacked the machine, set it up and loaded the software into my PC...

...spent the next 24 hours 'recovering' my PC after the software set up the DOS in German and the keyboard to the German settings

Try Disag http://www.knestel.de/index.php?id=55# for an English version - if Disag cannot provide English softwareThe DISAG RM4 is software-compatible with the SAM 4000 as it uses the same protocol.

Spencer, I talked to the factory this afternoon and, for my big surprise, the downloadable software is only a demo. You have to pay for it,

Just checked the version you suggested and is the same thing. Thanks for the help.
