Subject: Mod7 or Kermit for Xerox 16/8

I have a Xerox 820-I.  It is my understanding that the Xerox 820-II
uses the same I/O ports as the 820-I.  I believe that the Xerox 16/8
is really an enhanced version of the 820-II, therefore, Modem7 or
Kermit for the 820-II (or 820-I) should run on your 16/8.  I have
both Modem7 and IMP for my 820-I.  I would be glad to make a copy
for you if you want it.  If you have any technical docs for your
16/8 check to see if the following specs match your machine.

       Xerox 820-I Specs for Comm port:

       Comm Chip - Z-80 SIO-0
       Baud rate chip - 8116
       
       Port 0-3  -  Chan. A Baud rate
       Port 4    -  SIO Chan. A Data
       Port 5    -  SIO Chan. B Data
       Port 6    -  SIO Chan. A Control
       Port 7    -  SIO Chan. B Control
       Port C-F  -  Chan. B Baud Rate

If these specs match the 16/8, and I think they do, then my version
should work on your machine.  Mine is configured to use Channel A,
but it can also be configured to use Channel B (Z-80 assembler required).

Let me know if you want it, and I'll try to get it out to you.  If you
reply to this msg, it may be a while before I respond again.  I am
usually on this network only once or twice each week.
