| Is this DDCMP for a "generic" MC68020, or for a specific type of machine?
TSSnet was/is developed by Thursby Software Systems. Thursby works with
DEC to provide the Mac implementation of TSSnet.
Syndesis provides the Amiga implementation of TSSnet. If you want Amiga
specifics call Syndesis at (608) 455-1422.
If the question is more "generic", send me mail and I can get you in
touch with TSS.

| DDCMP is a pretty simple protocol. You can probably develop it
yourself in a month.

| 4641.3 | Thanks for the information. | SKYLRK::BARTLETT | | Mon Apr 01 1991 16:05 | 11 |
| Thanks for the information on who to contact for TSSNET. The
MC68020 implementation is a generic implementation since it is for
and embedded processor. The communications device is an Intel
87C196 that does RS422 and some sort of BiSync communications protocol.
I've also heard that the DECRouter 200/250 is MC68000 based and that
it does a lot of DDCMP.
Our original suggestion to the customer was to just write it from the
specification, but he would like advice, examples, and maybe some
consulting. We are working on this, but I'm basically doing pre-
proposal research right now.

| There is a DEC manual, whose number I don't remember, which describes
the DDCMP protocol in great detail. As far as advice and consulting,
Digital can provide as much of that as he wants, at a suitable price.
We have a department, whose name I also don't remember, which does
that.

| 4641.5 | We have the DDCMP specification. | SKYLRK::BARTLETT | | Tue Apr 02 1991 11:12 | 3 |
| Yes, we already have the DDCMP specification. We are also working
on some expert consulting assistance with Digital. Every little bit
helps.
