Ancient history - Digicom

Around 1985 I was working in Digicom S.p.A. (still existing).
I worked on many projects, designing some firmware for modem or other TLC products.

Abstract

  • Software development of data communication plants
  • Development software for RS232 switch matrix
  • Used C language under QNX (Unix like OS for 80x86 hardware)
  • Development data communication utility with 8086 assembler
One of these was particularly interesting to me.
A RS232 switch matrix.
A brochure of the product
My first job was to study the QNX operating System to develop an interface to command a matrix Rs232 switch (DCX-A).
With this interface was possible to identify each Rs232 line to be handled by the circuit switching mechanism and to be connected easily with other lines.
