Ok, numpty question time:
If I switch on my //e, <ctrl>Reset it to get a prompt, then type PR#2,
does that mean that all keyboard input is redirected to slot 2 (serial
card in this case)?
In which case, assuming there's a device on the other end (null modem
cable) with matching comms parameters, anything I type on the //e should
show up?
Similarly, IN#2 and typing on the remote device should show on the //e
screen?
I only ask because I'm trying to establish whether this CCS 7710 is
working at all or if it's dead.
Many thanks. Sorry about all this.
Jim
