Keywords: No Digest Subjects in Unmoderated Mode Message-ID: <3348@brchh104.bnr.ca> Date: 4 Jun 91 18:40:00 GMT Sender: news@brchh104.bnr.ca Organization: Sunspots, Psuedo-Unmoderated Lines: 22 Approved: sun-spots@rice.edu X-Original-Date: 16 May 91 14:23:06 GMT Hi, we want to do image capturing using a SPARCstaion 2 GS (no free S-Bus slots) in combination with the VideoPix frame grabber S-Bus board. The question is, whether it is possible to use an S-Bus Expanderbox (from TMS), plug the SUN GS graphics board into the expansion box and get free slots for VideoPix and other S-Bus boards. Will the SPARCstation 2 GS still operate this way, or does the GS board have to be connected with the SUN motherboard ? Please answer quickly by mail, for we have an urgent acquisition decision to do.
