Netlandians, I'm trying to use a Super Serial Card in an Apple II+, slot 3, to service an external terminal or modem. Works perfectly in terminal mode (I'm using a Freedom 100 right now); full file access, etc. BUT when I fire up MDM730 (configured for the Apple with a Super Serial Card) and go into T (terminal) mode (or L for local echo to), I get a rush of cryptic characters across the screen and a constant screaming bell! This is with NO cards (SSC or otherwise) in slots 1 or 2. Still the same with an SSC in Slot 1; totally locks up on entering T or L mode with SSC in Slot 2. Nothing unusual about the SSC configuration in Slot 3 - 9600 baud 8 data bits 1 stopbit no parity no interrupts. This is an interesting project (want to be able to access the Apple via modem, while the Apple is part of an Omninet), but there's obviously some sort of conflict or crossed signals between the SSC in Slot 3 and everything else. Any ideas, friends? David Kirschbaum Toad Hall
