Does anyone on the net own a Xerox 16/8 and have either MDM7XX or Kermit that operates on it. If so, could we send a disk to get a copy of the com file? Please send answers direct to: gecook@crdec-vax1.arpa Thank you!

I have a Xerox 820-I. It is my understanding that the Xerox 820-II uses the same I/O ports as the 820-I. I believe that the Xerox 16/8 is really an enhanced version of the 820-II, therefore, Modem7 or Kermit for the 820-II (or 820-I) should run on your 16/8. I have both Modem7 and IMP for my 820-I. I would be glad to make a copy for you if you want it. If you have any technical docs for your 16/8 check to see if the following specs match your machine. Xerox 820-I Specs for Comm port: Comm Chip - Z-80 SIO-0 Baud rate chip - 8116 Port 0-3 - Chan. A Baud rate Port 4 - SIO Chan. A Data Port 5 - SIO Chan. B Data Port 6 - SIO Chan. A Control Port 7 - SIO Chan. B Control Port C-F - Chan. B Baud Rate If these specs match the 16/8, and I think they do, then my version should work on your machine. Mine is configured to use Channel A, but it can also be configured to use Channel B (Z-80 assembler required). Let me know if you want it, and I'll try to get it out to you. If you reply to this msg, it may be a while before I respond again. I am usually on this network only once or twice each week. Bob Bailey
