Title: True Color II LED Sign - 4.5 BTC

The sign works great and is in really good cosmetic shape, but I don't have the data cable for it.  Fun novelty item, or good for a business too.

For sale for $60 in BTC (currently around 4.5 BTC) + s/h.  Will do local pickup or ship it out, either way.

Bumping!  Anyone interested?  Probably just going to throw it up on eBay soon.

Can you provide further details as to what sort of cable would need to be purchased to make changes to the message? Also is there any software to do so?

Yes I am also wondering the same thing. I have one of these but don't have a controller. If there is a control mechanism included I might buy it just for that.

RS232 Serial Port (COM PORT) is the computer side, and the sign side looks like a standard 6-pin RJ-11 (?).  Whatever the 6-pin equivalent of RJ-45 is.  I've seen lots of these types of cables used on UPS battery backups, and I would imagine you could just use a cable from one of those.  I do not have any software with it though.

Also, did some searching and found a PDF of the spec sheet and the manual for it.

I'll call up Pro-Lite when I'm not at work and see what it would take to get a remote and/or software for it.  It sounds like the remote is the most common way to program the sign.

Or if one of you wants to call Pro-Lite, feel free to do so.  I just don't want to do it from my workplace.  ;)
