All,
The Sun 3 I picked up at VCFMW is functional - I'm able to get output to
the ECL monitor even with no keyboard.
Oddly (to me) with a serial terminal hooked up to port A, I don't get
any output there. The screen shows that no keyboard is present, and
input should come from the serial port, but nothing is recognized there.
I think I can work past this once I get/make a keyboard and/or adapter.
What I would like is to find is the 3-row pin SCSI cable. I thought I
had one, but the two I have are 50 pin on one end and either centronics
style or mini on the other. Not fatal, but I'd like to find the cable to
hook up the shoebox. I will continue to dig - the basement is deep and
still sometimes holds secrets...
Having fun! :-)
Steve
