I am in desperate need of a Async to Bisync to Async character/protocol
converter. I need something that I can control on the character level.
Something that I can have complete control over the actual communications
protocol on, something that has hardware interface documentation.

I would like it to be in card form for a PC or AT.

I have a something called a SYNcable from a company called CLEO that will
allow you to input an Async character in 1 end and receive a Bisync character
out the other end and vice versa. This WOULD be the ideal thing except that
I have not been able to get the product to perform well under heavily loaded
conditions. (I have been told everything from 'The box has hardware probs.' to
'You just don't know how to use it'. But, I do... and it still won't work well.

I have heard that Black Box MIGHT offer something like this, but... How do
I get in touch with Black Box.

I need something that I can 'make up' my own bisync protocol with, something
that is REAL non-standard. Could anyone help me, I'm starting to get pretty
desparate!!!

Thanks in advance for ANY help!!!
