Why can't such systems use emulators?
- SixSigma 11y agoBecause you can't emulate the physical interface, you need to build an actual one. And if it has some custom ASIC in it, you're SOL.
- DigitalJack 11y agoYeah, but it's from 1992. I wouldn't be surprised if it could be bit-banged with an arduino.
- SixSigma 11y agoBut you'd have to know what it does for all possible states. Not impossible but non-trivial. They are the kind of people that could have an ASIC ground down and reverse engineered. Non-trivial. They have extremely skilled engineers and lots of money.
- DigitalJack 11y agoWell being that this is a connector, from 1992, I have strong doubts that it is anything complicated. And you only have to know the states/transformations being used. Easily scoped.
