[Rxtx] about VDCP by rxtx

[Brian Schlining]

I wrote a Java implementation of the Sony 9-pin protocol, called vcr4j (VDCP
is derived from Sony's 9-pin protocol). Vcr4j uses RXTX under the hood.
As Ilkka mentioned, the pins are arranged differently for RS-422 but a pin
converter between RS-422 and RS-232 is pretty cheap to pick up.
Anyway, the existing Java implementation, vcr4j,  is open source and
available at http://code.google.com/p/vcr4j/ . It may help get you going
with VDCP.

Cheers
Brian
