Well i Aquired a Datamedia DT80/1 terminial, It worked yesterday,
but now it don't..

I get "garbage" with the text that is to be there..
BUT.. It was remembering the Baud settings, then stoped for a while,
then remember them now..(rechargable battery?)

and on the 2nd setup screen, where ya set up SendRate,and Reciece rate.
there are 5 "numbers" in reverse video, yesterday they said things like

1 0010  2 0101  3 0110  4 0010  5 1101   6 0101 TSPD 9600 RSPD 9600 ASPD  50
  ^^^^     ^^^^    ^^^^    ^^^^    ^^^^     ^^^^                         ???

The "^^^^" #'s are all 0's now.. What do they Mean? What's the ASPD # ?

ps: I also was getting "box's" and loseing text when it was working..
I haven't been able to try any "fix's" yet tho..

Any INFo would be welcomed..

(A MANUAL WOULD BE GREAT..)

Anyone wanna trade?.... I just want a VT100 terminial for my DOV unit..
