Ok, after 3 months, I'm ready. One problem:
How can I get the TLServer.jar and .jar?
The CD only has *.exe files. ZIP's perhaps?
I would need the applet which could program a T100MD888+.
If need be I'm willing to install that other OS in order to extract the jar files and move them to my good machine. :)

: TLServer is also written in Java so "theoretically" it should work on Linux. There is a need to install the javax.comm files for the JRE in Linux because the bundled version use a
: Win32 DLL for communicating with the serial port and that have to be replaced by a Linux driver. You can download the javax.comm from Sun's server (www.javasoft.com). Once that is done the TLserver can be started by:

: java -jar TLServer10.jar

: provided you navigate to the directory where the TLServer10.jar file is installed.

: We haven't had a chance to test or port the system to Linux. If you have the time to play with it we will love to hear your feedback.

: : What about Linux? I am swiftly moving to linux and was wondering if my PLC will move to it with me. I bet the java applet would be fine.
