I am interested in using a Tandy 100/102 for performing simple data acquisition tasks. I am curious as to what others have done with this sort of thing. Any information on using the Tandy 100/102 for the sampling of external signals would be greatly appreciated! Thanks (in advance) -- Kenneth B.

Since you didn't say what type of acquisition I will assume that you wanted to record readings of devices and maybe control them using logic routines in the Tandy 100/102. Below is a list of articles and ads with summaries (no order and not most current, just a random sampling): November 1988 - "Real Cheap Time Input/Output!" by Ken Osborn - How to take air flow measurements directly from a anemometer. for around $10. November 1988 - AD - "Data Acquisition System" - 8 digital input lines & 8 output lines, plus much more. - Programming examples and instructions. - Rural Engineering Inc. Route 14, Box 113F So. Royalton, VT 05068 (802) 763-8367 February 1989 - "The Model 102 Outstanding in its Field" by John Jacobsen - Agripro and Jacobsen Holz use 102's to collect data for agricultural research. and much much more. I would love to provide you with more information, but I have a limited amount of time. I hope this helps! Jeff Cortez Maintainer of the Tandy 100 Archives tandy@uiuc.edu
