If I'm not mistaken, this one was built for us when I was with Martin
Marietta, working on a JPL project to militarize uVAX-II hardware in our
customized packaging. It works with VMS, and I doubt there was little else
done with it in conjunction with our project.
I worked on other parts of the system (rotating memory), but that company,
located in Longmont, CO, I believe, may still be in business.
Codar built the customized backplanes for us to use in our portable and
extreme-temperature tolerant boxes, along with a few other odds & ends. I
once was called upon to rectify a problem with one of their switch panels,
which I did with a resistor array (a minor oversight).
