HP 5181A (based on 9915) on eBay - what does it do though???

[John S]

Hi,

There is an HP 5181A currently on eBay for $50:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7521170381

This looks to be exactly the same as the HP 9915A (ie the industrial version 
of the HP 85A, part of the series 80), with the tape interface but sadly no 
operator interface (ie no video out and keyboard connector). I guess it has 
some special software on EPROM though.

Has anyone on this list any info on using this machine, I can't see from the 
photos for example how it connects to the X-Y display it is attached to for 
example.

Thanks,
John
