Password for Topaz Vios software is "training" When opening Topaz Vios you may get an error "Cannot connect to com1". Click "Ignore", then when the program opens, type "training" at any time. If you make a mistake while typing "training", just start typing it again, it is a simple DOS system. If you are setting up on your laptop, go buy a USB A: drive. It works good. The Topaz software will automatically connect to the A drive. If anybody wants training from me, on how to move programs from Centroid, to Excel, to Cad 2 Cad, to Vios I will train 20$ hr, minimum 4 hours. Good luck guys! Thomas Albany 949-903-1653
