Hi, gang,
FYI: I'm in the process of converting a 1991 vintage Data I/O device wallchart to spreadsheet format. Once done, it will provide the family & pinout codes for just about every device Data I/O was supporting at that time. Said codes are necessary when using older programming equipment, such as the 19, 29, and 212 families.
The file will be made available in Quattro Pro spreadsheet and .PDF formats, if all goes well, and will be stashed on my FTP site.
I'll post an additional note when its ready. It's going to take at least a month or so, as there's a -ton- of raw data in the thing (I'm working on a little each day). It will be sorted by Manufacturer, Device part number, Package, and F/P code.
No charge... I'm doing this because I know a lot of people have the old programmers, and I hate to see good equipment go idle simply because the manufacturer no longer supports it. Besides, this is something I'd love to see if I were still using a 29 or something similar.
Keep the peace(es).

Greetings:
We're wrestling with Aztec C-86 3.40a for MS-DOS (1986)
and have no docs; we'd very much appreciate a description
of command line args and switches for the various tools
(if anyone can still find this info), especially the
linker 'ln.exe'.
We've compiled objects and libraries for a version of KA9Q
specifically modified for a newer version of Aztec C
(we needed to remove function prototypes and do other
workarounds) but the linker chokes on backward references
to unresolved symbols. Reordering the objects in libraries
is not feasable as a workaround since that would create another
set of backward references. There must be a way to get the linker
to work properly on its two passes...
All replies much appreciated.

I think as long as
the cast is made from an existing roller then a bunch of them can be
turned out in a short period of time.

Wax casts are for one-shot use. That's why they're wax..
Fancier casts would need to be two-piece so you can get the part out.
But, a two-piece would leave a seam.

Hello Jonathan,
I was doing some extensive surfing regarding SEMs, and I happened upon a message that you posted regarding an ISI-WB-6 SEM/EDX that you were giving away, as it was taking up space in the hallway. Of course, the message was posted March 9 of this year (my birthday, but that would be true for approximately 1/356.25 of the earth's population). But I just have to ask:
Is that SEM still blocking your hallway, or did somebody mercifully relieve you of it? If not, and you still would like it to find a new home, I would find that a most tantalizing prospect (I wonder how much an interstate transport permit would be for an X-ray source to haul it to...California).
I hope that the weather isn't too miserable in Ohio these days (I used to live in Wisconsin, so I know), and have a great weekend!
Take care,
Steve Schaut

Would you like to try some experiments? I have some Apple (actually 3M) roller shafts
and some from Wangtek 60meg 1/4" drives that I have cleaned that I could send out. I
did measure the OD before removing the goo, of course..
Hi,
I am looking for a 22-pin PCMCIA cable for my Sundance/Applied Transputer
Technology
PCMCIA transputer card. The current cable that it comes with is not
compatible with
the transputer boards I currently own. Here is a picture of the card
itself:
http://www.classiccmp.org/transputer/smt104.htm
The cable needs to connect to the card itself. I need at least 17 wires
>from the 22
coming from the cable. Here is a picture of the PCMCIA side of the cable:
http://www.thesupplynet.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=453
I have this, but the problem is it only has 8 wires and I cant seem to open
the shell.
Any help is much appreciated...
Cheers,
Ram
PS: This is a B004-compatible transputer interface that I am planning on
running on an Ultra 2 Enterprise
Sun workstation with the Sbus-based PCMCIA card :-)

The site is indeed very interesting. In our computer museum at the
University of Stuttgart we have a complete working LGP-30 with Flexowriter
and high-speed reader/punch since 1999; it is probably the only working
machine on earth. I met David Weil of the Computer Museum of America last
year and I gave him a copy of the german maintenance manual including
schematics of the LGP-30 and all our paper tapes (read in on a PDP8/e and
transferred to a PC with Kermit) on a floppy disk. In return I copied the
essential parts of the american LGP-21 maintenance manual (not the
complete manual because of the excessive high costs of $0.10 per side) and
extracted the wiring diagram of the little daughter board which is in my
eyes an instruction set modification. There were many such
modifications/enhancements for the LGP-21 for which we have all the
documentation and blueprints and I know of a modification for the LGP-30
which added a -Z instruction and an overflow flag in the program counter.
I have reengineered this and added it to one of our two LGP-30 logic
boards. It is working but we have no software which makes use of this new
feature.
We have the original and complete sets of schematic diagrams,
blueprints and software for the LGP-30 and LGP-21 (except SW). For those
who are interested the LGP-30 papertapes can be found at
ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pub/cm/lgp30/papertapes
and some pictures and (german) description (needs to be updated) at
http://computermuseum.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de
The paper tapes include the Act V compiler, basic subroutines, 10.4
(successor of 10.0) and 9.0 (bootstrap loader), as well as the original
Blackjack game (yes, it's there!) and other stuff. All tapes have been
converted to ASCII but there are tools to convert from ASCII to FlexCode
and vice versa. I have also written a LGP-30 simulator for
MS-DOS (written in Turbo Pascal) that runs all LGP-30 software. I have not
published it yet because I have to cleanup the code and translate the
messages into English. I will put it onto the ftp server if this is done.
I would be very happy for any comments and discussions on the LGP-30 or
LGP-21, especially if there is another *working* LGP-30 out there. Our one
was built in 1958 and it's working perfectly, the drum has no "bad
sector"!
Christian
PS: Here's a transscript of my simulator running Blackjack. The output is
in color (black and red) and it appears to be the same program as the one
on Tom's site.
