Subject: Re: Free DEC MINC-11 in NW England - rescued!
I'm sure one will turn up sometime in the future; knowing my luck someone
will give me another fully populated MINC next week :) And then I'll get
battered off the missus.
The DAC has one cable coming off it that terminates in a female D25, but the
previous owner didn't know what it was used for since he was given it by
someone else!
Anyway; the haul included MINC with 2 modules and
the following boards:
Only 2 modules (I assume the DAC and Clock that were mentioned) :-(.
Pity. You really need at least the ADC to do anything useful with it. M8029 RXV21
RX02 controller
M8044 MSV11 RAM board
M7270 (I think) 11/23 CPU
Isn;t that an 11/03? Odd there's no LPV11. That was standard on the
MINC IIRC. Apart from
that, it sounds like a standard MINC configuration (the IBV11 is a GPIB
interface, BTW...)
If one or both of the DECwriters that came with the bundle were used on the
MINC they'll have been serial anyway, so no need for an LPV11....
cheers
