While digging through my spares a couple days I came
across a very
interesting looking card.
CODAR TECHNOLOGY INC.
MODEL 120 CALENDAR CLOCK
ASM 951-1200 REV B
COPYRIGHT 1987 MADE IN USA
Does anyone have any information on this card, and what OS's it can be used
with. Does it require special software?
See, for source code and documentation,
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11/codar/
You'll find the original distribution files (from README.1ST):
The Model 120 Calendar Clock Source Kit contains:
1) files to build the programs STIME and RTIME, which set the calendar clock
and initialize your operating system's date and time, respectively,
RTIME . COM RT11/TSX-Plus command file
STIME . MAC Source for STIME for all RT11/TSX-Plus systems
RTIME . MAC Source for RTIME for RT11 V4.0 and later (and TSX-Plus)
2) subroutines used by RTIME and STIME to read and set the calendar clock,
CCSUBS . MAC Source for subroutines used by RTIME
as well as the file CODAR.DIFF, which has the Y2K patches I did a few
years back to the sources.
Now that you've got TCP/IP working under RT-11, I'll also post my
"NBSTIM" source - it goes out and queries a National Bureau of Standards
time server for current UTC time and date over the network, converts it to
local time, and uses it to check or set the -11's clocks.
