Lines: 14 I'd like some advice/help on the above topic. Specifically, I'm trying to program a card reader through COM1 with a Microsoft C (v5.1) program. To initialise the lock, the docs state that "break level must be off more than 2 seconds". That's got me stumped. What is break level? Can I program it from C? If so, how?
