Yeah, the docs I’ve found say the MMI-110 was sold for the Onyx as Vigrasound 
and used extensively in Discreet Logic installations.

There’s a whole huge chain of acquisitions Vigra went through though (Visicom, 
Titan, L3, Harris) and I fear this information was lost. There are *a lot* of 
jumpers on this card, it’s pretty oldschool VME.

SGI sold one model of these as their audio option for SGI Onyx and 
Challenge series I believe? If it's similar enough maybe there is 
documentation from that?

Vigra MMI-210 (VME DSP/audio card) documentation?

[Chris Hanson via cctalk]

I just acquired a Vigra MMI-210 VME DSP/audio card that I’d like to get 
working. Does anyone happen to have manuals or know where I could find them?

The Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive provides some programming 
information 

 so if I can configure the card, I can make it do things.

Unfortunately I have yet to find an installation guide. Since it’s a VME card, 
it has plenty of jumpers that will need to be properly set before it’ll 
actually work.

Anyone have a source for more information, or another place to dig for it?
