I haven't spent too much time looking at the
interface but most of the
smarts are in the drive and serial communication is used to send
commands to it. I have a bunch of information on the RX01, the RX02
should
be similar.
Do look. the two are very different.
The cable I made to hook my 8 to the DB25 on the RX02
has 22 wires in
it, I
don't remember how many are grounds.
Every other one. same for RX01. Different signals though.

I don't have documentation, so I'm not disputing that, but this
makes me very curious. How is it that the RX8-E card (M8357) can deal
with any of:
1) RX01
2) RX02 in RX01 mode
3) RX02 in RX02 mode
