Delete key that doesn't and mysterious switch....

Submitted by retroaudio on August 16, 2011 - 12:14pm

Hi,

Here's one for you.....

I have just got two apple IIe's recently (one UK and one US) and both seem to have delete key issues!

When I press the key, instead of deleting the character, it just displays another cursor on the line. Even if I backspace over characters it still just prints another cursor!

Any ideas?

Also, on the UK model, on the unerside of the case at the keyboard end there os a two position rocker switch.

What does this do?

Thanks in advance,

Richard.

Does Anyone Recognize This Card?

Submitted by gsmcten on August 14, 2011 - 6:42pm

I was just up on eBay and there is a card for auction that I have never seen before.

The Item number is 280724325328 and it seems to be a mouse interface with a SCSI connector.

Any ideas? Smile

ADTPro with a USB Serial port?

Submitted by retroaudio on August 11, 2011 - 3:30pm

Hi,

I would like to run ADTPro from my laptop but it does not have a serial port. I have a USB to serial adapter and wonder if it can be used. When I start ADTPro and select the serial config option, no port numbers are shown in the drop down menu.

Can this combination work?

Thanks,

Richard.

Power Supply Identification

Submitted by retroaudio on August 6, 2011 - 2:10pm

Hi to All,

I am trying to identify a fried component on an Apple IIe power supply. I have a couple of schematics but they differ from the supply I have.

Mine is a 120v version, Apple part number 825-0510-A, manufactured by DynaComp Inc.

It is the first component on the neutral line after the switch!

A diagram would be great if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Richard.
