Subject: Dumb Question
We just received the Winterhalter Remote Batch Terminal Emulator and
the writeup says to rewire the dip headers for a Real-Time Clock of
3.328 ms, Interrupts for Clock as RST5, and for Modem as RST4, and
modem data rate controlled by modem. The specific details of what to
do are given for our system.
My question is: if we were to do this, would regular CP/M use of other
programs not be bothered by those interrupts (or do I have to do
something to field them)? Would a regular printer connected to the
port used for the modem no longer work properly?
I have a mixed educated guess as to what will happen without actually
trying it. Has anybody tried and know for sure?
