Ah, a request from the age of dinosaurs - where pterodactyls darkened the skies and mammals were small and full of fear...
It has been bazillions of years, but I believe that this was a multi-board set. Look for model numbers HP82321 and HP82324. The board combo was referred to as the 'Viper Card Measurement Control Processor'. I have many (non-fond) memories of Rocky Mountain BASIC. Bing and Google, regardless of what many Europeans have said, are your friend. Found this in approx 47.5 seconds: http://hpmuseum.net/exhibit.php?hwdoc=681 During the prelude to the Dark Ages, Test & Measurement Systems, Inc provided support for this board.

This plugged into an ISA slot on a PC and by magic combination of keys would burst into life using the PC keyboard monitor printer and hard disk - running programs in HP Basic and providing an HPIB port as well. The PC could also function in the background. Anyway I have found one of these cards - I have an old PC with ISA slots _ all I need is the instructions - at minimum I need the "secret key press" to switch from PC to Viper and back again. Can anyone help?
