Wanted: (Information about) Connectivity Kit for the HP 38G

[johnb]

Samson Cables still has this, I believe, for $15 plus shipping.

You'll probably want to talk to them before ordering, just to confirm.

You'll need to look around for the Connectivity kit software, or else you'll end up buying it off one of the auction sites (WAY overpriced).
If you're on Windows 11, you might have to run it in compatibility mode, or (irk!) in an older version of windows in an emulator or virtual machine. I have no idea about Apple machines... my last Apple was a ][+ (written correctly, with the brackets instead of 'II+').

If I'm not mistaken, this is the exact same cable and software that the 48G/G+/GX uses.

So you might be able to use PC software for the 48g series. Try https://www.hpcalc.org/hp48/pc/link/


If you don't find the software anywhere, I might be able to scrounge up a copy of the PC software that works with the 48g series.


Hope this helps!
