Hi all,
I've been trying to learn about the protocol IBM used between their coax terminals and the controller such as the 3174. I've found some documentation on the Type B terminals like the 3277, but I'm more interested in the Type A implementation, used for the 3278/3279. I'm not looking for a detailed explanation of the 3270 protocol since I know it can fill multiple books, but rather just hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Pretty much everything I know at the moment comes from the CHIPS 82C570 data sheet. Given the amount of ISA emulation boards and clone terminals made I would think this information must be out there somewhere.
