Before you spend lots of $ (about 100, I hear) on a custom harness,
youc an achieve the same thing by putting a cheap Radio Shack
capacitor across 2 of the leads.  This method should be in the
archives.  Search for words like capacitor and picofarad.

Also, Darrell Boehler's Digitool can accept a standard DB25 connector
that lets you just plug the capacitor right in.

Sorry that I don't have all the data here for the capacitor in front
of me.
