I finally dug out my OMNIBUS LA-180 interface card - M8365, pcb p/n 5011818B. I don't know much about it except that I used a 40-pin cable straight to the parallel input connector on the LA-180, and that whateve IOTs it uses must be the "standard" line printer ones because it took no fiddling with. I plugged it in and OS/8 was happy with it. No muss, no fuss. -ethan ===== Infinet has been sold. The domain is going away in February.
