Can anyone supply connection information for a VenTel MD212-1E modem
for wiring between the small 8 pin connector near the rear of the
PCB and the voice/data switch on the side of the cabinet?
 
VenTel have made several modems in the MD212 range. The 1E is an
earlier one with *NO* autodial. It was supplied in two versions:
1) For terminal users, in a large flat plastic case with a voice/data
switch on the side, and an external PSU. The switch allows for manual
dialing then switch to modem when machine answers.
2) For machine use a cage-mount card. This does not have the voice/data
switch as they were for auto-answer only! PSU was in the rack cage.
 
The two versions use the same card. I have several of the second variety
which have been obsoleted from our main machine. I wish to reuse them
as terminal modems and hence need the voice/data switch. PSU and box
is easy to make.
 
Does anyone have one of these and/or the info?
