I just received a return telephone call from AXXON in Canada on Friday night at 4:34 PM CST, only 15 minutes after sending them an E-mail inquiring about their 5VDC parallel card that works with the Plasmacam. Talk about customer service!
He told me that the card they make which works with the PlasmaCam (Model LF918KB) is the one in the link here in this post. He said he sells a lot of them to Plasmacam owners who eventually find their way to the AXXON site and locate the card. WHY Plasmacam doesn't just tell us what card to look at, is beyond me.
AXXON offers a 10-foot cable and a 15-foot cable (each at an additional cost) that "will" (read: should) work with the Plasmacam controller, even though it is longer than the magic FIVE-foot error-free length.
Next week I will order two cards and two longer cables, and set them up in my two PCs for my two tables. Hopefully they will work great, without those @#$%%&%^&*^ read errors!!!

I heard about axxon directly from plasmacam. If you call into tech support or sales, they'll definitely tell you to contact Axxon if you need a pp card for your plasmacam pc.

Re: The AXXON Full 5VDC Parallel Card!
Yea, I needed a 10' cable last year and Plasmacam told me to contact Axxon. Real nice folks and the card has never had a communication problem in almost a year. And that's with wi-fi streaming music, cameras and much more wi-fi interference than you could imagine.
You marry into the PlasmaCam family and must accept the fact your software and hardware are proprietary. It's a for better or for worse engagement with overwhelming security. PlasmaCam controls the computer, table, hardware to their advantage IMO.
