I have come across two serial cards for Q buss made by Aviv that emulate
a DZ card.

The boards have a 50 pin ribbon connector on the rear. The panel
break-out for a DEC DZ will not work with these cards. A call to
Aviv was less than useful. They want to sell me a panel for lots
of bucks. The guy told me off the record that there need to be
pull-up resistors.

Does anyone have any information about these cards, particularly
connecting from them to the rs-232 connectors? If so, I would
appreciate a reply via e-mail.

Thanks..
