	We have a Wangtek 5099E tape drive and a Sysgen 4540 tape
    controller that we inherited from a DOS system. Does anyone
    know what command set is used for this controller? We want to
    run it under SCO Xenix 2.2, which supports various tape drives,
    but doesn't seem to like this one. We also have some third party
    software that claims to support hardware using the QIC-02 command
    set.  Is the Sysgen controller such a beast? Or is this unit
    doomed to look for a door to stop? Please reply by mail.

				Thanks in advance,
					Neil
