Hello people!

	I'm doing a project at school and the course uses the Z80
microprocessor, so I told them I'd use it as an interface between an
oscilloscope and a PowerGlove. I was wondering if any PowerGlove
afficianados(sp?) out there would give me a hint as to what the thing
is sending out. Anything from an overall description to Mattel specs
to documented assembly for another type chip would be great. I think
I'll need stuff like the codes coming out of the data pin, the packet
length, logic, start and stop bits, and I should know what the clock
rate is supposed to be (does changing it mess up the internal
triangulation routines?)

	My project will be rotating and moving geometric figures on
the oscilloscope using the glove. Finger movements will change the
shape being manipulated. I've got all the geometry worked out, and
these specs are my weak link, so help/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

P.S. Should be done in a month or so - will have a better Idea
about things then if anybody wants to know.
Hmm - I still dont have a ".sig" so:
