It is NOT a multifunction card.
It is a memory card.
The DB25 is NOT parallel, it is not serial.
On the Jlaser/Jlaser-Plus that use the same basic board design, the DB25
is CX laser controller (NOT Centronicsw parallel!), and the DE9 is for
Canon IX-12 scanner (NOT video, serial, etc.)
Cool! Any chance you have some docs on it? I haven't plugged anything in
to it yet, altho I did power up the system a few times. Once made it as far
as `PARITY 1 ERROR', most times it just sat there with the cursor blinking.
I've been reseating all the chips. Got a little too smart tho-- I pulled
one out to jam it back in, it came out crooked and broke two pins off.
:( If I can't find a spare off another board, I'll see about soldering the
pins back on. BTW, the MB has a V20. Is that stock on an IBM-branded XT?
The card is ALL memory, with just a few "glue" chips. There is no
multi-function stuff on it.
The "daughter" cards, on the other hand, have all sorts of weird stuff.
What kind of weird stuff? Interesting-weird or strange-and-useles-weird?
Want to buy a few?
daughterboards or cards?
