Subject: Emulex resources?
I've been to Al's repository on spies.com and found a few documents,
but I'm looking for some info on a variety of Emulex disk controllers.
The level of detail I'm at is what controllers support which drives
and emulate which DEC interfaces...
I.e. - I have an SC21 on the way that emulates an RH11/RH70 and lets me
talk to a variety of SMD drives as if they were RM02/RM03/RM05/RM80
drives. I also have a QD34 that was an entire Pound that I'd like to
press into service, but I have no cables... I was contemplating removing
the I/O transition board and fabricating a "standard" A&B cable connector
interface (60 pin/multi-26-pin).
I'm also curious to get a reference to other controllers in case I
see them float by... most of the ones for sale lack specifics due to
seller ignorance.
Hi,
I have original Emulex manuals for CS09 (16 line-comm. controller) and DM01
(ST506-disk (MSCP) and SA450 floppy) controller both for the Qbus.
If this isn't available yet, I can make copies or lend the manuals to someone
who puts this to the web.
Other doc available: Codar 170 time of day clock/watchdog module for Q-bus,
DSD 880 Floppy/harddrive combination for Q-bus and Unibus,
Able computer systems, Qniverter, Qbus to unibus adapter,
several National semiconductor Qbus memory card for Q-bus.
Looking myself for doc's and/or jumper-settings for:
- Excelan exos 203 quad Q-bus controller, (probably ethernet??)
- Chrislin Industries CI-1123+ dual Memory-board
- SMS sientific micro systems Disc-adapter assy nr 0003770-0001, connects via
40 pole flatcable to a formatter 0003904-0001 that connects to several
8" discs- (eg Quantum Q2000) and floppy drives Shugart SA800
- Kaiser & Dr. Damm GmbH, MOT11-D1 ser. line controller with local MC6809,
aperantley a german made module, but maybe also sold worldwide....?
