About six months ago I struck a deal with a place down in California for
four Documation M1000's that I've been able to tell so far they all work

I really don't have space for more than one.


If anyone here does get one, I've got a simple Arduino UNO program that
interfaces to the parallel output and sends fully decoded information over
USB at quite high speeds. The M-1000-L is a great reader, very reliable,
and easy to work on too (I did a little routine maintenance, but mine was
in 100% working shape when I got it).

Here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N27Mr199I7g

   There's also Brian Knittel's USB interface for the Documation readers:

   I built one, and it works well.
