The 25-pin interface is wired so that the console uses the standard pins (2,3 and 7). Of course you can use the LAN console functions provided with the MP card. In some cases only the MP serial interface will be accessible and usable. The MP card is otherwise useful also. E.g. if the machine crashes, you'll be able to check the logs for what has happened or if the machine is completely jammed, you can reset it remotely. I've heard a few people say the Remote MP card doesn't work on the zx6000 - It's gotta be a firmware setting somewhere as the zx6000 and rx2600 are the same machine with different fas and a firmware switch changed. -- Mark Benson My Blog: <http://markbenson.org/blog> Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mdbenson "Never send a human to do a machine's job..."
