Hi all,



Is anyone familiar with this board or the manufacturer? I am looking for some sort of manual. HEre are the pictures that may be help to recognize it:

Thanks.



AMF makes bowling alleys. The board you're looking at probably has something to do with scoring or pin-setting. You've got one of the more recent examples there, they've gone through many generations of technology, from relay logic to PDP-8's and -11's to the embedded system you have there to stuff that runs on Windows on PC-clones.

If you really are looking for a bunch of switched outputs, tell us what voltages/currents are being switched and I'm sure we can come up with a better solution. If it's AC getting switched then it'll almost certainly involve solid-state relays.

Thanks. I got it for real cheap ($10), and I need something to have about this number of outputs. (I was considering using PCs parallel ports, but that would be either a pain, or more expensive if I was to use relay boards).

The guy who sold it said that it was used for temperature monitoring and control.

Yes, I'll need relays anyway, for switching about 60V AC. But I was wondering if I could use this board as a controller.
