Yes, that is for the cable provided with an Overland Data TX-8. What's
the "blue" adapter? I've never heard of any Overland Data Pertec
controllers besides the TX-8 and the TXi-16 before. Did the same company
really use the same connector for the same purpose but a different pinout?
Great, thanks. Now I can sort them.
The blue adapter is an 8-bit adapter one of my customers had before I changed it
to a TX8. I'm quite convinced that it was an Overland product, but I am not so
sure that I want to put my head on the block. It was a horrible thing, but it
was easily programmable, and that meant that we could skip bad blocks on 9 track
tapes.
Could someone enlighten me to what the name of that thing could have been ?
