does anyone recognize this stuff and know if there is a manual around?

pROBE+ is now ready to talk to the host debugger over this serial channel...

this is *VERY* interesting for me, unfortunately I have no idea about the protocol 

[DiTBho]

"pROBE+ Users Guide (5192-001)"

that is *the* manual!

probably there was/is a paper copy 
(if so, a pdf, scanned documentation)

You have probably found the below via Google already? A detailed product flyer and a manual on what appears to be a later version of the same pSOS+. No idea how much of it applies to the version you have...  Maybe it's worth asking Lauterbach, who are selling the current product, whether they can help with documentation of the vintage versions?

yup, but I haven't found anything really useful yet. Just a very old post on a mailing list, with the name of the manual, and a list of some commands.

Lauterbach has the same product name, but looking at their manual it seems totally unrelated to the firmware I have on the board as none of their commands work

Worse, I have a full licensed Lauterbach Trace32 at work paired with Windriver software. When I try to interface the target board via the serial line, again none of the queries seem to work, except "ID"

So 9600bps-8-n-1 is correct, the ID query works, but that's all that works.

In my opinion, if Lauterbach bought pROBE+ from Integrated Systems, Inc., they modified both the debugging protocol and the monitor commands making them not retro-compatible

I will be writing Lauterbach an e-mail in hopes that someone will have time to re-direct my question to some retired engineer who know anything about the old pROBE+ (1991-1997) from Integrated Systems, Inc.
