Titan Accelerator II+ / Superclock II / Microbuffer II
I cannot find the manuals for the Titan II/II+ Accelerator, the Superclock II from Westside Electronics, and the Microbuffer II from Practical Peripherals, what I need to know are the various settings of the dip switches on these three interfaces. Thank you in advance.

Hi
I have a titan accelerator II+ manual (but no card somehow), 1st glance it looks the same as written out in the weblink (provided above). If someone wants to upload it, if it helps...I can email scans quite happily.
cheers, Iain
I designed and sold the Superclock II back in the early 80's. It's nice to know there's still someone out there trying to use one! Although if you had an AppleTime (my first clock card for the Apple II, I'd REALLY be impressed!).
Assuming the EPROM hasn't faded out over the last 20 years, you should be able to get it to work (although the battery probably is shot). Here are the functions of the DIP switch:
SET : On (Up) allows clock to be set; Off (Down) disables changing time
ADJ : On (Up) resets seconds to 00
MODE : On (Up) selects ACE (Apple Clock Emulation) mode to allow use with programs written for the Mountain Hardware board
Hope that helps!
P.S. This info also basically holds true for the Proclock from Practical Peripherals which bought the rights from me.
Hi,
thank you for your post. What I search for is the II+ version ( the first version from Saturn if I remeber correctly ). That should not be the one in the link? Did I get something wrong? Please reply.

Hi Jeff,
I apologize for the long time it took to react. I am happy to read your informations. Yes, Westside Electronics was a good company, and the Superclock II a good piece of hardware for the Apple II. I will try out your hints. Is there a chance for anything like a manual e.g. as PDF file??
Yours Karl-Heinz

Per your request:

Very challenging manuals to find. You might try posting on the comp.sys.apple2 group for more coverage. There is nothing in any of the Apple II manual repositories or on Asimov.
The only thing I could find was a text manual for the Titan IIe but I bet you already have this.

Good luck and please upload to Asimov when you find them.
