Subject: SSDF and stand alone chess computer testing

Is anybody familiar with the way micros (I mean stand alone chess computers) are
being tested by SSDF?

I have an old '86 Scisys stand alone without any pc connection possibility, and
I'm not too well known with modern stand alones.

Are the ones in the SSDF list hooked up to the PC, and if yes, is there a
possibility of autoplaying programs in those comps. Maybe without showing moves
on the sensory board or so, I can't really imagine. Or is it imperative to play
the moves manually?

Thanks for the info as I'm wondering if I could test mine (Scysis Kasparov Turbo
S-24K) for its appr. strenght. It claims Elo 2000, but I hadly believe it's more
than 1800 at strong tournament setting (40/150'). On say 30'level I'm able to
draw it relatively simply, as a lousy 1600 player I am.
