Got a new Q-bus toy - It's a MUX.
I need to know what it is, and what it's compatible with.
The label on the A-S baggie says "AVIV 8-port MUX, Q-BUS".
It appears to have the model # "SDZV11/03", this is written on the PCB.
The distribution panel has "Webster Electronics" written on it.
Any ideas?
This is - surprise! - a clone of the DEC DZV11. Sometimes part numbers
are your friends!
Webster was an Australian company that made many Q-bus and a few Unibus
DEC-compatible options. Here in North America, they were frequently
relabeled with the "Aviv", "DSD", "Sigma",
"Qualogy", and a few
other trademarks. Strangely enough, "Wombat", the Webster MSCP
config utility, was never renamed :-). Even if they tried, Webster's
chief software designer left some Easter Eggs behind that'll pop
up his name from the Wombat menu!
