[HECnet] And yet more begging: KZPAC style controller?

The KZPSA is a differential scsi controller. It supports dual hosts and may be used as a cluster interconnect (data only, no cluster control messages).

Here's a photo of mine, can you draw the bit I need to change onto it, or the general area:

That picture reminded me of something. I have what I thought was an extra long
and overly complex PCI SCSI card in my stash. It has the same Intel i960 as
the card in the picture but doesn't have the extra daughter board. It is
marked KZPSAPS and has a single 68 pin external SCSI connector and five
resistor packs commonly found as terminators on old-style (ie non-low-voltage)
differential SCSI cards.

I tried firing it up in my AS1000A and found that SRM sees it as follows:

SHOW CONF

  12       DEC KZPSA                             pke0.7.0.12.0                     SCSI Bus ID 7

SHOW DEV

pke0.7.0.12.0                           PKE0                                   SCSI Bus ID 7     R01 A11

VMS (7.1-2) sees it as:

Device PKA0:, device type KZTSA/SCSI (SIMport), is online, error logging is
      enabled.

      Error count                                       0       Operations completed                                 24
      Owner process                                 ""       Owner UIC                                           [SYSTEM]
      Owner process ID               00000000       Dev Prot                           S:RWPL,O:RWPL,G,W
      Reference count                               0       Default buffer size                                     0

Anyone know what (if anything) is special about this card?
