In dropping off some loaned manuals to someone earlier, I came away with a System 96 box by mistake :-) It's a nice STE bus crate (approx 16-way, without going back downstairs to count) using 3U Eurocards - the nice thing about this one being that it runs OS-9 rather than some proprietary OS/application (as is often the case with Eurocard boxes that are generally aimed at the industrial control market) As well as a 5.25" floppy drive, the machine has a small ST506 hard disk in it running via a SASI bridge (I can only see the underside at the moment, but judging by the connector pin locations it's probably an Emulex) I've got the following boards: 6809 CPU + control ROM SASI HBA + parallel + 2 x serial (for internal disk via bridge) SASI HBA + parallel + 2 x serial (for external SASI devices) FDC Memory (128KB) Memory (128KB) Memory (128KB) Memory (128KB) It was working when last used (which wasn't that long ago; it belonged to someone who still got occasional support jobs for STE bus equipment, and was their backup OS-9 box). I've got various floppies for it, but at present no documentation - that's currently packed up many miles away at the chap's other premises. Which begs the question - anyone have one of these systems with the docs, and can tell me: a) DIP switch settings for the serial lines, so I know which is the console and what line settings to use. b) DIP switch settings for the memory boards. One switch on one of the boards is jammed halfway between open and closed, so needs putting right before I try and get some life out of the machine. cheers Jules -- If you've ever wondered how you get triangles from a cow You need buttermilk and cheese, and an equilateral chainsaw
