Subject: Zicon LAT3 logic analyser system
Anyone ever seen one of these in the wild? Zicon appear to make (or did make)
logic analysers, but it seems they also did a ruggedised BBC micro which sat
underneath and hooked up to their equipment for control purposes.
The BBC side was in a big metal instrument case with a hinge-down front
containing the keyboard, and two vertical HH 5.25" drives in the chassis
mounted to the right of a small display screen. I've no idea if they built it
in-house or whether it was bought in from elsewhere and some Zicon branding
slapped on it.
Unfortunately I only have a two-page advertising flyer and nothing more, and
it's not heavy on detail. Couple of nice pictures (one B+W) though.
Oh, there's another flyer about another Zicon analyser; on the back page of
that one it shows a BBC micro connected to two Hantarex display monitors, each
displaying a separate image. Not quite sure how that was done (unless one
display is secretly coming straight from the analyser, rather than the BBC
somehow driving two displays at once)
cheers
