I believe the Falcon vision board that Contact Systems used in their equipment is no longer being made by the manufacturer. I would first call them (most reputable), next check the used equipment guys (be carfull), and lastly ebay (good luck). What

I did not buy this machine from Contact, therefore they will not support it...unless you buy the 2nd user support package I think its called. I think a lot of people ask questions about Contact because there are so many used machines out there.
