Re: [NTLK] Syncing eMate with eMac

I did uninstall the OSX drivers of the keyspan. Then tried NCU, and I get
the following message:

"Could not initialize the Serial connection because the P#2USA28X1 is being
used."

The eMate is connected to the Keyspan on port 1 and I tried also on port 2,
In the preferences I can set the Newton connection to Printer port,
P#2USA28X1 and Apple Talk, I did tick only P#2USA28X1.

In the keyspan USA-28x Manager, I see: Port #1, port name "printer Port USB"
And if I choose Port #2 I see: P#2USA28X1.
I don't understand what this means.

Greetings
