24
+				<p>NI USB-9211 is the model name for a National Instruments NI 9211 module paired with an NI USB-9161 USB Carrier. National Instruments has many combinations of the NI 9211 module with other devices featuring very similar model names and different software compatability. Please check carefully.</p>
25
+				<p>This hardware is known to work with Microsoft Windows. Typica requires that NI-DAQmx Base 2.2 is installed to use this hardware on Microsoft Windows.</p>
26
+				<p>This hardware is known to work with Mac OS X. Typica requires that NI-DAQmx Base 2.1 is installed to use this hardware on Mac OS X.</p>
27
+				<p>National Instruments claims that this hardware will work with Linux, however it may be difficult to make this work with most Linux distributions. There are minor differences in the way NI-DAQmx Base is loaded in Typica on Windows and Mac OS X and Typica may require minor modification to use this hardware on Linux. Confirmation that this works or a patch to make this work would be appreciated.</p>

24
+				<p>At present this hardware is only supported on Microsoft Windows and requires that the DATAQ SDK is installed. It will likely be supported on other platforms in the future, but purchasing hardware based on possible future compatibility is not recommended. Note that this device does not take thermocouple inputs directly and additional hardware may be required to effectively utilize this hardware. While measurements from this device can be mapped to temperature data, there are several characteristics of this device which make it the least desirable of the supported options for that sort of data. This device is better suited to logging control data of limited range and precision.</p>

26
+				<p>Some Diedrich roasters have included hardware appropriate for connecting to this device. An example is shown in the following video.</p>

24
+				<p>While Modbus RTU devices are supported on all platforms, these are usually connected through an RS-485 to USB adapter. Please verify driver support for your adapter with platforms you intend to use. There are also several limitations in Typica's support of Modbus RTU devices. While these limitations are likely to be removed soon with a future version of Typica, at present only one device is supported per bus and only one process value and up to one set value per device is available. This is sufficient for basic logging of temperature data and allows limited control in some roasting system designs, but more complex configurations or devices dealing with non-temperature data monitoring and control are not yet supported.</p>
