Have one of these that has been on the shelf for years never figured out how to hook it up. Has a DB 25 connector on the side of it but I don't know if that is a dedicated card cable interface (IE Needhams PB10) or a parallel cable interface.
Anyone know?
It is similar to the one on ebay (not mine): https://www.ebay.com/itm/XELTEK-SUPERPRO-Universal-Programmer/112865734595
And if it is parallel what software supports it? I have an XP box which I should be able to run it on.
Thanks,

Hi David, Ah, the original SuperPro! You can tell it is the original if it has no power input socket. Later versions had a socket for a wall wart supply. That was a good burner in its time and still will work if you have the controller card - and a PC slot. I think Xeltek still offers limited support for this obsolete unit, mostly the programming program - but not the interface card. If you want to reproduce the card I can lend you mine to play with. As I recall it has a voltage regulator and some TTL glue to talk to the burner itself. If you have a different SuperPro I still may be able to assist as I have a few variations that I have picked up over the years. It is one reason I have a Xeltek section in the FTP site.
