Kaypro 16 to Kaypro 8 bit Communication



To  hard  wire  a Kaypro 16 to any of Kaypro's  8  bit  computers
follow the wire diagram below:




     5 4 3 2 1          13 12 11 10 9  8  7  6  5  4  3  2  1
    (* * * * *)        (*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *)
     \* * * */          \*  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  */

      SG  5      <------------->      7  SG



After  you  have  connected the  two  computers,  to  communicate
between them, you need a communication software. We recommend the
program called "MITE".  Set the program in DIRECT mode,  then you
should be able to communication back and forth.
