I scavenged something that identifies itself as a Universal Data Systems (a division of Motorola) 208A/B from a gov't clearence. From all indications, it seems to work, but the problem is - I don't know what it does (or rather, how to get it to do whatever it is that it does) If anyone can help me with the following questions, I would be eternally gratefull. - What speeds does it run at? -does it work on direct datalines (given that it has telset and telcom phone jacks on the back, I assume that it runs on phone lines - could be wrong). If so how. -What kind of command set -how to dial if I can't use my dataline (If nobody has suggestions for the above, how about creative uses for a TI 32010 chip and EPROMS??) Thanx in advance (replies by email please) Doug Kelly kellydk@qucdn.queensu.ca

Most are for 4-wire full duplex over leased lines, though there may be options for dialup half-duplex usage. > (If nobody has suggestions for the above, how about creative uses for > a TI 32010 chip and EPROMS??)

Thanks to all who responded. The info helps, but unfortunately, everything around here is asynchronous, so I'm not sure it'll do me any good Doug Kelly kellydk@qucdn.queensu.ca
