Before pressing "Connect" be sure your calculator is setup as described
here:
http://hptalx.sourceforge.net/manual.shtml#AEN171
Can you see the "Awaiting Server Cmd." message in calculator's display?

Port "100"? What kind of port nomenclature is that? :-?
I would expect "/dev/ttyUSB0" for an USB device or "/dev/ttyS0" for the
first rs-232 port...
I think the application is crashing because cannot establish a connection
with the device.
