MICRO-LINK
CORPORA TIO N'S
SIMULATOR/PROGRAMMER
Micro-Link Corporation of Carmel, Indiana, is offering a product that may
be just what you're looking for.
With the ROMAID Model 2704 PROM Simulator/Programmer,
data can be loaded into the RAM memory via a pre-programmed PROM,
the keyboard, or through one of the serial communication modules. The
data can then be manipulated with the EDIT feature or by using an
optional software package. Once the host system software is debugged, the
PROM personality module is unplugged, the PROM programmer module
is plugged in, a blank PROM is inserted and the user is ready to program
the corrected version of the system's memory. Debugging and testing can
also be done without reprogramming another PROM. To find out more
about the ROMAID Model 2704, write Micro-Link at 624 S. Range Line
Road, P.O. Box 517, Carmel, Indiana 46032. Or telephone:
317-846-1721. TWX 810-260-2634.
