Hi,

Ibve acquired an INMOS B008 ISA transputer host adapter and a couple TRAMs
to go with it (two 1MB T800s and a 4MB T800+DSP) but Ibm having some trouble
getting it set up and going. Ibve found all the manuals and software on
transputer.net <http://transputer.net/> but the damn thing wonbt connect to
any TRAMs.

Ibm following the instructions at the bottom of this page
(http://www.geekdot.com/basic-transputer-tools/
<http://www.geekdot.com/basic-transputer-tools/>) to check the host status
using DEBUG.COM <http://debug.com/>. The board shows up and acknowledges
commands at 150h like it should but the error flag is always set. ISPY and
ISERVER canbt see the root transputer.

I have pipe jumpers set up on all the empty slots. Ibve tried all the TRAMs
in slot 0. Ibm not sure what to look at next since I havenbt worked with
any transputer hardware before. Anyone out there who can help?
