We are trying to add a Mac to our ITT Courier 7601 controller. I was
under the impression that it is an IBM327x compatible controller and
I should be able to add Apples 3278 Coax card and software to the mac
and connect the two.  This has not yet worked. I have connected the
mac and received an error message 590 on the status line. An ITT
service man said that the data coming out the back of the 7601 is
not IBM compatible but proprietary. If this is true we will never be
able connect PCs or Macs to this controller an to buy a new controller.
Tell me it aint so!
If any one can shed light on connecting the Mac to the ITT 7601 please
give us a hand.
Thanks
