Guys:
Does anyone have the docs for these HP protocols?
They're used to communicate with HP HPIB disk drives
and stuff.
The Amigo protocol is the oldest. Then the CS-80,
and the SS-80 is the newest. I think any of
these would be relevent to the work I'm doing.
Joe: You mentioned you had the Amigo protocol.
If you can dig it up, that would be cool, but
only if time allows!
Thanks.
Jeff

Yes, I'd like to get in on this too as a "me too". I've been looking
for
CS/80 info since 1990 or '91 when I got my HP 250 system. Must be a
non-published protocol except for certain internal uses. My old HP CE
friend who maintained the 250 for my company was even completely stymied in
finding it back then too.
If we get enough folks together maybe we can form a posse and . . .
Anyway, I guess a real search should be for technical folks who worked at
the Boulder, Colorado operation which is where I understand some of the
computer and disk drive developement was done. Also, maybe somebody from
the German HP operation where the 250's and others were originally made
might be a source. Never know what might be lurking in an old closet or
file cabinet of theirs :)

Can I add a 'me too' ;-). I've been looking for this info for about 3
years now, and haven't managed to track it down yet...

Jeff,
I had the Amigo protocall at one time but I don't remember where. I'll
have to look for it again.
FWIW CS 80 stands for Command Set 80. SS 80 stands for Sub-Set 80, it is
a subset of the CS-80 protocall.
