Wink DataBase 10000 SunStar out of business

Hi, i need some help desperately. My database 10000 fried this morning. So i purchase a used one from the guy that repairs my beds, but this one has a different type of 'hole' in the back where it says computer/connection. Not a standard phone type plug, smaller and oddly shaped. The phone numbers listed for them (SunStar) on the forum are disconnected, and the website is down. Does anyone know what I am supposed to be looking for so I can hook this to my computer. Money tends to walk out the door in the salon when they can just push buttons to start without the computer. Any help would be appreciated. My name is candy csobie2@yahoo.com. Thanks in advance

Kind of like a phone cord connector, where you would plug into the wall at home/work. But a mite smaller. Found out this is from 1995, if that makes a difference. Looks like new. Went to Radio Shack and tried to explain this plug, the guy looked at me like I had 3 heads.

I would too. :) The only connector that I know of that "looks kind of like" a phone connector actually looks JUST link one but smaller. RJ11 I think its called. Regular phone is RJ22 and network connectors are RJ45.

Could you take a photo?

Re: DataBase 10000 SunStar out of business

I googled Rj11 connectors and dound a site that had pictures of all different connectors. I do believe this needs a mmj connector. Going to try at least

Re: DataBase 10000 SunStar out of business

All the connector people I talked to seem to think it is not possible to have a rj12 on one end of the cable and rj12/mmj on the other. So i am going to ship my old Database to FST Co. in Ca. He claims he can fix the fried one, worth a try. Found his info on another one of the post here, thanks whomever posted it.
