In my
very limited experience of dumb terminals they are literally that. The
brains
exist on the mainframe. That'll be the OS and everything else. Look at it
as a
monitor and keyboard on a network cable. Pretty much useless I'm
afraid.

Hi all,
First, my apologies for
disappearing. I didn't realise that one of the ukha emails had bounced and
so
my subscription was automatically cancelled - I though it was a bit quiet -
lol. Anyhow, here's my problem/opportunity. I've been given (by the techie
at
my school) a dumb terminal by Advance Micro Research (which was found in a
cupboard) - called "The UnTerminal Station". It is an SVGA station platform
with a DIN (AT) keyboard port, parallel port, serial port, SVGA port, and a
"network" port which is like the 6-pin connections on modems (RJ-11 i
think)not forgetting the requisite IEC power port. Unfortunately I
have
NO IDEA WHATSOEVER about how to get it to work. When i try connecting it up
and powering on all I get is the three lights on the keyboard flashing
(Num Lock, Caps Lock, Scroll Lock) and a sound of what I presume is a relay
clicking. Any suggestions on what, if anything, it does and how to use it
would be useful. Have a pleasant day.
Many thanks in advance,
Lee Edward
Causier.
