Subject: connecting IMS BOO3 boards to LINK II card from Levco.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
We have a Transputer box containing 10 IMS BOO3 evaluation boards.
We want to use a TDS that runs on the MacII rather than the IBM-PC
and we're having a lot of problems in achieving this. We have a
LINK II board from Levco which fits onto the Nubus, and a B404-3G
Transputer module that fits onto this board. But, apparently the
LINK II board uses a differential voltage driver while the BOO3 board
does not. Also, we aren't able to figure out how to take outputs
from the LINK II board and feed into the BOO3 boards - we don't
have the description of the pin-out from LINK II board and don't
know what kind of jumper cables to use.
I would appreciate if any of you could suggest ways of solving
these problems. Any info about using the Mac as a front-end
to a Transputer box would be most useful. Please reply by e-mail.
Thanks in anticipation.
