[GreenKeys] Telex’ish question

[Steve Garrison]

Wow, that looks awesome.  Maybe I’ll call in sick for the hamfest this weekend so I can try this!

 

Oh well, something to do next week.

I forgot to mention that Johannes from Italy wrote a nice "Telex look and almost feel" :)

terminal software matching the serial port of the i-Telex system:

Brian,

 

the i-Telex "TW39 Special" board has got a fully operational teleprinter on board.

The board consists out of two ports.

The upper port is a standard TW39 port to connect a real Telex machine by loop current.

The lower section of the board is a fully operational teleprinter emulation. It works stand alone

without a PC or terminal permantently connected. Incoming message to your system are

stored like in an answering machine. Once you connect a terminal program you can either

directly use it as a teleprinter and chat or just for reading stored messages.

For more modern PCs it is possible to use the serial port with a cheap USB converter.

The standard firmware uses 9600 8N1 hardware handshake terminal connection.

We also have a modified 110 baud firmware version for connecting model 33ASR machines.

Mike from New Jersey uses it successfully.

Both ports operate totally independed and you can even send messages locally between

the two (or more...) ports or "go" outside by dialing 0 and connect other i-Telex members around

the world.

I am sure Mike from NJ will gladly answer any questions for operating it "American style". :-)

He uses exactly the same set-up with a model 32ASR Telex connected to the upper TW39

and a model 33ASR as a terminal connected to the bottom serial port of the board.

Good morning,

I have a bit of a wired idea, as I have no room for Heavy Metal.

Is it possible to set a PC (DOS to Win 7) up, connected directly to a dot matrix printer, to copy a ‘real’ TTY setup, and utilize it on I-TELEX?

Thank you in advance,

Brian
