What kind of information do you need? I think I have an
electronic manual, but if you can tell me what you need
that will make digging it out easier.
The original plan was just a conserver for my VAXcluster, but in my searches
for a manual, I came across a few interesting tidbits of information:
The DECserver is based on a 680[01]0, with 256k ram.
The serial chips used have modem control (*unverified)
DEC has/had a technical manual with details of the memory map etc.
and of course the firmware is MOPed from a host server
So, a project that started out just a dumb LAT console for my VAXen now has
the possibility of growing into something a little neater. It all depends
on wether or not I can locate that tech manual.
