That said, I believe that mesa has an ethernet based protocol, uses RJ-45 connectors and cat5-6 that connects their expansion cards and which is quite a bit faster than a TCP connection. The 7i90 I currently use in my lathe conversion has such a port but is not in use here. It also connects to any parport, or in the case of an rpi-3b driver, thru an SPI interface built out of the pi's gpio facilities, a much faster interface than the epp port as it uses a 32 megahertz clock. It gives 72 i/o pins, but is a 3.3 volt fpga, and easily destroyed by piped in noise from vfd's and stepper drivers. The 7i42TA contains the protection stuff, so I am presently building a new control box with the pi, the 7i90, and 3 of the 7i42TA's, a psu, and if I can make it work, a 1 TB drive I hope to be able to copy everything from / on the sd card to, and then edit /etc/fstab so it becomes / I am less than impressed with the longevity of the micro-sd cards when used in an active read-write environment. But thats personal opinion. Subject to revision at any time. . > 2017-05-26 14:51 GMT+02:00 theman whosoldtheworld <[email protected]>: > > hoops Gene ... I see now your web page ... very nice ... Nothing fawncy, runs in a permissions sandbox. The odd port number was chosen because I have a long history with the trs-80 Color Computer, which has an MC6809E cpu originally, but mine now has an HD6309EP in it, a cmos semi-clone Hitachi made, that we've found had quite a few easter eggs in the microcode. Totally unpublished, or ever acknowledged by Hitachi. Using them has resulted in a machine thats almost twice as fast as os9 was, so we call it nitros9 now.
