Hi Tony,
- 3 x
P859 (one looks like the board set is incomplete)
Am I right in thinking that his
is related to the P854?
Yes, from what I've been able to glance from the manuals, the P859 is the
same as the P854, but build on large 19" rack sized cards (M-type cards)
rather than double eurocards (E-type cards)
Ah, right... I'd assuemd youy had a lot of double eurcards...
The P854 is certianly double Eurocards. I think the CPU set is 3 boards,
I would have to check what's on each board.
- 1 x card cage with 6 cards. No idea what this is
yet.
Maybe soem specail I/O unig. Philips appaer to ahve made a lot of realtime
I/O bords, ADCs, DACs, etc.
Turns out to be an expansion chassis that gives you space for 6 more cards.
When I got my P851 nad P854, I was given a chassis like that full of
'spare' boards, mostly seiral, but with I think an ADC or DAC amongst
them. I was also give a few prototyping board (dobule eurocards with a
wirewrap arean and the bus interface logic pre-built, one of which was
never used. I always intended to make a paper tape interface on one of
them...
