Title: MYSTERY DONGLE
Post by: JFP on 01-27-2016 -- 16:07:20
Hello

I have found in a lot of metrology stuff a parallel port dongle SENTINEL Pro from RAINBOW Technologies with the following sticker

RB-4AGFCE-B
9717U24332
Wavetek Datron.

Any idea ?

Just a wild guess... but maybe Portocal for the 9500??  Or something like that.

With a manufacturer with a name like this RAINBOW Technologies, it's probably a male to male, female to female or gender-changer adapter.

Seems like I remember when you bought Portocal the license was on a dongle, I bet that is what it is.

I like yonker's explanation best. Sounds legit to me. :mrgreen:
