Hi all

I have Wavetek 9100 calibrator. It was used when I got it.
I got also Portocal II S/W with the calibrator, but unfortenately
it needs some kind of "terminator" to parallel port. This "security key"
like they call it is missing. Is there any way to get it or to make it??

Best regards

Welcome to the Cove.

Did you try the manufacturer to see if you can get the part? Their URL is http://us.fluke.com/usen/products/M...lukeUnitedStates&Category=CALSW(FlukeProducts)

The thing you're referring to is called a "hardware key" or "dongle." It's a copy protection device; the software won't work unless the dongle is in the parallel port. You might be able to get something from the manufacturer, but be warned that Windows XP (and 2000, I think) won't allow the device to be recognized.

You guys are fast....

But just to make myself feel like I'm contributing, if you have a Fluke sales representative who calls on you, give him or her a call and let them track it down for you. We have a two 9500 calibrators with Portocal (we've switched to Met/Cal, and so don't use it any more). But you may need some evidence that you have the original software CD's (not sure specifically the requirements on Portocal), for the Fluke Rep to get you a replacement dongle.
