Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

As I commented, with the 5-pin din, current-loop optoisolator system used by gear manufacturers and hackers for the past several decades, we agree. To borrow a metaphor used a few replies back, I do not try to be a general of past battles with 20-20 hindsight. I try to look at future possibilities.

No commercial interface with DIN plugs on it is going to do better than that baud rate,or face the equipment not getting the signal. In the case of pre-USB vintage machines,there is no way to go faster than 31.25kB.
