GOMPLITER SYSTEMS NEWSLETTER Please be sure that the customer understands this limitation when ordering a printer for a 2640B. (Also see article by Tom Lee in the DTD section of this Newsletter.) I New Options for 2630 Family By: Larry AndrewsIBoise 8th Bit Alternate Character Set Selection The 2631A can now be ordered witn Cyrillic or math symbols as alternate character sets. Cvrillic is Option 007, and HP 2640-Series compatible math symbols is Option 010. U.S. list price is $150 for each option. B y Larry AndrewslBoise As you know, secondary character sets on the 2631 can be selected by a shift-out character or the 8th data bit. Some interfaces, however, don't pass the 8th bit to the printer. The following 2631 interfaces support 8th bit protocol: Also a paper catcher can now be ordered as option 002 to the 26097A and 26098A pedestals. U.S. list price is $50'00 New 263112635 Data Sheets I The following 2631 interfaces do not support 8th bit protocol: By: Steve DavisIBoise e Updated versions of the 2631A Data Sheet (Part No. 5952-9424 REV. 1-78) and the 2635A Data Sheet (Part No. 5952-89425 REV. 1-78) are now available STD -040 -042 -044 -210 -240 -300 - i i I The new data sheets contain updated specifications for print head and ribbon life. Also the System Configuration charts have been revised to delete the serial interface to 264X CRT's. Finally, the duty cycle section has been reworded to more accurately define the print loads that the 2631A and 2635A can handle.

By: Mike HarriganIBoise The 13190B multi-unit cable is obsolete as of March 1, 1978. This is a 20-foot long cable for daisy chaining an add-on HP 7970B mag tape drive to an existing HP 7970B mag tape drive. The 13194A is exactly the same cable, with the exception that it will work on both the HP 7970B and the HP 7970E mag tape drives. Therefore, if you have need for a 20 foot multi-unit (daisy chain) cable for any HP digital mag tape drive, you will now order the 13194A. 2631's and 2640's By: Larry AndrewsIBoise Remember when selling a 2631 to be used with a 2640A or B that only the CRT's display memory can be dumped to the printer (80 columns only). A 2645 with device control firmware is required when data must go from the CPU directly to the printer.
