I've
got a hankering to play with the IEEE-488 bus but can't see paying
the current prices that most people seem to want for a IEEE-488
controller for a P.C.
On that front, I've got a couple of older 8-bit IEEE cards that I would
love to find out information on...
They're National Instruments cards (over 10 years old!), p/n 180212-01,
with a 5-position DIP switch (U17), an IRQ jumper area (I2-I7), a DMA
jumper area (A/R 1-3), a non-installed optional battery and (I think clock
chip) 58167. The main IEEE chips are an NEC D7210C and NS DS75162AN
driver.
Speaking of which... :-)
A friend recently gifted me with a Mac IIx that had been "excessed" by
his company. In it was a National Instruments NB-MIO (Data Acquisition)
card and a matching NB-DMA-16 (GPIB) card.
Since I don't have any GPIB hardware nor the smatching signal conditioner,
are these of use to any of you? Offers for cash or interesting trades
welcome.
