Kirk, Thanks for the reply. Are you suggesting that I do something like you did but in reverse somehow to read the voltage with EMC? I understand that the usb port can handle analog 0-5v inputs from a joystick. Perhaps something that would scale the 0-220vac to 0-5vdc that I could somehow use in EMC with a scaler... dunno I'm thinking out loud right now so anyone have any simple ideas please jump in...
