DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The wax GSC bus controller is a version of lasi(4) with limited functionality
 and no additional devices on the crystal.  It is mainly used as a
     GSC bus controller for additional onboard devices (e.g.  2nd
RS232 or HIL)
     and  sometimes  add-on cards (such as a TR-9000 card for the
HP 9000/712
     models).
