Biodata Microlink 3

I've seen a previous post on this:

but the link doesn't seem to be working. Again, has anyone got any helpful advice they could give?
Thanks,
Kenneth.

Hi Kenneth,
 
If I was you I would post onto the original forum posting to see if the person who gave this link can help you, they should still be subscribed to this post so they may see your question.
 
I've had a look on the NI website and on Google and I can't find a lot of information searching for "Biodata Microlink 3". What are you trying to do with this device? Do you want to program it from LabVIEW - if so then do you have a programmers reference and user manual.
 
If you can give me some more information about the equipment and what you are trying to do, I might be able to give you some pointers of where to get started.
 
Regards
