I checked with one of the HP1000 dealers on the net and was quoted $100 for
a 12966A serial cable. I guess that would be either a 12966-60004 or a
12966-60006 for standard 25-pin terminal / modem cables.
Now I'm glad I recently picked up an unused 12566C off of eBay complete with
the 48-pin connector for just over $20 delivered. When that arrives I
should be able to use that connector to build a serial cable for the 12966A.
Is there a scan of the 12966A manual (12966-90001) on the net somewhere?
I've found a large selection of other HP 1000 manuals, but not one for the
12966A. I did google up a 2 year old message from Frank on this list with
card edge signal descriptions so I at least have that.
