- I'm looking for hardware details on the PC-Localtalk board (from
- Apple nee Farallon). Specifically, I'd like to find enough info
- to be able to program to it at the hardware-level (i.e. write
- a driver for it that does _not_ use PhonenetTalk/PC, as the localtlk
- packet driver does). [Why, you ask? I have 3-4 of these boards doing
- nothing as Localtalk boards, but I have possible uses for an RS422
- interface].
-
- Where might I find specs and/or source code examples for programming
- this board?
-
- Alternatively, I also have a Novell NA1000 (or whatever it's called)
- Localtalk board. Info for this board would be equally welcomed.
-
- I've found info on programming SCC interfaces (from KA9Q-NOS), but
- it seems to me the Localtalk board is a bit more complex. (It's
- got a 6502 on board) (The na1000 has a z80)

- Thanks,
