MSI 6800 - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

Thanks Kip!
I did manage to get it going. Turned out the switches for baud rate are not labelled
accurately. It has a monitor called Weebug.. no idea how to operate it. :) ?Hoping
it's similar to SWTBUG, MIKBUG etc.

 Hi there,
 I have acquired an MSI 6800 (SS50) computer and am trying to figure out how to get it
going.? I am reaching out everywhere hoping to
 find someone with knowledge of these as I have searched around extensively and cannot
find a manual.
 With a null modem cable connected to a PC I can get a response from the computer by
typing things or resetting it, but the output is
 garbled.? I know the baud rate but at present have no way to determine the other settings
like bit, parity, etc.
 Any help/advice would be appreciated!
