For curious minds not familiar with this device, the
HP 1350 is a vector
graphics controller with a 1K by 1K addressable
display space. Usually they come with a HPIB interface but there was a
serial (RS-232) I/O option. The HP 1350 can
draw vectors or letters and symbols with a simple ASCII command language
(called GTML) and its own internal display
list memory, and were often used with older HP calculators and computers
such as the HP 1000 line.
Can you tell us more about this thing ? I was always fascinated by
vector sceens (One day, I have to try to build my own controller ;-)
I tried google, but HP decided to make a printer cartridge with that
number, so no fun there ...
And, probably you have to wait for tony. He has one of this things too ;-)
cheers
