I'm the proud new owner of a couple of TeleVideo TS816/40 and a
TS816H/40. Unfortunately these beauties came without any
documentation or tapes (the 816/40 has a built in tape backup).
One of the computers has TurboDos installed. The TS816H is just
a 40 meg HD (with power supply) in the same size case as the
TS816/40.
I would like to locate documentation on the 816/40 and 816H/40,
as well as TurboDos. While I'm at it, I'd also like to find out
something about a "TeleVideo PM Interface" card that has a ROM
labeled "180010-18C /1605N". The card has RS-422 port (DB-15)
and it looks like it plugs into an IBM (or clone) slot. Can
anyone help with information on these cards, I have several of
them.
Finally, does anyone have any of the cards which, when plugged
into an IBM (or clone), would allow the IBM to be use as a
workstation off of one of the TS816/40's? Thanks in advance for
any help you can provide. Take care.

The Televideos used a DB15 RS-422 arrangement to communicate to the server, and it sounds suspicously like the cards you're trying to get info on are the cards that you are looking for. =============================================================================== Roger Ivie 35 S 300 W Logan, Ut. 84321 (801) 752-8633 ===============================================================================
