I came across an ALS (Advanced Logic Systems) Smarterm II Card.
Smart Terminal
The card isn't an 80 column card. It is a terminal. The text that shows
up on a monitor connected to the card is NOT memory mapped like
40/80 columns on the IIe motherboard is.
To get text sent to the SmartTerm, you send ASCII characters to
the card. It isn't fast.
You can have two monitors hooked to your IIe, displaying 2 different
things if you have a smartterm installed.
Hi.
Thanks for the info everybody. I'd forgotten about PR#x. I hooked up a
second monitor to the card (the upper port). Entering PR#3 sends text
through the card in 80 columns, but when you run a program it returns to
the main monitor. I left the 64k/80 column card in the IIe and it
doesn't seem to interfere. But like Richard mentioned it's not memory
mapped. Anybody know what the second (lower) port on the card is for?
