Dyer Computer Consulting, Cambridge MA Lines: 16 I just layed my hands on a used DEC RRD50 "CD Reader" CD-ROM reader, sans documentation. I had thought that such a device from DEC had a SCSI interface, but this box has a 15-pin male plug which looks for all the world like an ethernet thick-wire transceiver port (which I'm sure it's not!) It also has a row of 8 DIP switches. If anyone can tell me how this usually hooks up to a SCSI device (or ANY device), as well as the meaning of the DIP switches, I'd be most appreciative. /Steve -- Steve Dyer dyer@ursa-major.spdcc.com aka {ima,harvard,rayssd,linus,m2c}!spdcc!dyer dyer@arktouros.mit.edu
