The MDS 2400 was a small floor-standing computer manufactured by Mohawk Data Sciences Corporation. The machine was originally developed by Atron Corporation as the Atron 501, introduced in 1969.[1] It was marketed primarily for remote job entry applications and promoted as The Peripheral Processor. Two related models from Mohawk were the 1200 and the 2300.{{rp|Comm_p.1}} DescriptionThe system had a base memory of 4 KB of core memory with a 2 μs cycle time, expandable to 32 KB. It supported one to four input/output channels with up to 16 devices per channel. It offered a choice of line printers between 280 and 1250 lines per minute (lpm), a 400 cards per minute (cpm) card reader, a 160 columns per second card punch, a paper tape reader, a 2.48 MB disk storage unit, and 7 and 9-track half-inch magnetic tape drives.[2] An optional asynchronous terminal could be attached as a console.[1] The system supported synchronous communications at up to 9600 baud, and usually served as a remote job entry system to a larger mainframe computer. The remote job entry software provided full support for the HASP multi-leaving protocol, among others.[3] See alsoGeorge CogarReferences1. ^1 {{cite web|title=Computer Industry Annual 1971-72|url=http://ed-thelen.org/comp-hist/Computer-Industry-Annual-71.html|accessdate=March 30, 2012}} 2. ^{{cite book|last=Mohawk Data Sciences Corporation|title=System 2400 The Peripheral Processor|year=1975|url=http://archive.computerhistory.org/resources/text/MDS/MDS.2400.1975.102646172.pdf}} 3. ^2780 - {{cite web|url=http://www.textfiles.com/bitsavers/pdf/mohawk/mds21/OperatorsGuide_1978.pdf|title=Operator's guide: MDS 21 series |quote=...
