Hello All,
Anybody familiar or does know something about the M3112 from DEC?
It says 'NICSA CONSOLE' and is a hex card and has a metal bracket
with a rotary switch commonly seen on the later PDP's, 2 buttons,
a couple of LED's and 4 7-segment displays. There is also a DB25
connector on the bracket, probably for a serial line?
Thanks,
Ed

Megan Gentry's Field Guide (
http://world.std.com/~mbg/pdp11-field-guide.txt ) describes it as:
M3112 DRCSA U Console boot terminator (DEC/DLC/DRCSA)
Sounds like some sort of comms gear, but I am unfamilar with it.

Hi Ethan,
Yes, I did found this too, but my hope was that someone might know
more about this than the single line in the field guide.
Anyway, besides this board, I was able to get a W9512 wirewrap board,
a W133-B (a dual W130-B) and 3 M7166 BI to Unibus paddle boards in the
same deal.
Thanks,
Ed

What ever happened to Megan? I haven't seen her around for a very long
time.
