HP 82166A/C

[HP-Collection]

Volks!
Today I got a HP 82166C HP-IL Kit and wanted to check its content.
I have some of the HP 82166A HP-IL Converter Prototyping Kits and some of the HP 82166C HP-IL Interface Kits but they all have different contents. Does someone has a full sett of these two boxes or is there a list, what belongs to which box?

Are you sure this application note was included in the 82166C kit? I don't remember it was.
I still have all the 82166C kit original documentation, but the application note only as a photocopy, that I probably got later.

Hi Matthias,

I found a leaflet from back then, hopefully this helps.

DropBox has blocked my abilities to "Share Link" (not sure why) - so I dropped a note on your Museum with the list.

BTW, J-F is correct, the 90024 is not on the list

Yes, this is consistent with publish date (March 1984), more than one year after the kit.
BTW, when I started designing my first HP-IL device firmware (mid. 1984), I wasn't aware of this document, so wrote the software based on my own functional analysis. It was not as structured as the HP reference design, but was working well and my code of the time (with some later improvements) is still the base of the ILPer devices :-)

Thanks! I have removed the document from the kit list. (the HP 82166C kit I have is an early one)
