I PROBABLY have a PIC around here somewhere...but I don't know where and I
know I DEFINTIELY don't have a crystal of that frequency.
Then you just need a longer loop.
I have an
arduino that I SUPPOSE could be hacked to work.
I'm sure it could -- maybe add a 2N7000 or something as the driver since
I think it's officialy an open-collector line (although I could be wrong and
anyway since it's not shared, it probably doesn't matter much).
Does the bus itself need any special configuration?
I can't think what this would mean. Just ground the "event" line every
50th/60th and you're golden. The Q22 mod was surprisingly easy too (since
there were only four slots, with wire-wrap connectors). If the power supply
hadn't later done what all power supplies eventually do, I'd still be running
that box...
I DO have the front
panel with an LTC from the NETCOM I can borrow for awhile (No need for it
until I patch ZRQCH0.
Yeah bringing it in from another box should be OK as long as everyone
agrees about ground reference.
