solder-in internal //gs keyboard connector?

Submitted by Lee Adamson on September 8, 2019 - 7:12pm

Howdy, folks!

 

I have a line on a //gs motherboard, but it doesn't have the internal keyboard connector soldered in.  I intend to do a little creative dremeling and standoff moving on a //e enclosure and install it therein.

 

I have the appropriate pin-row connectors for the internal keyboard connector.  Is there anything stopping me from just soldering one in?  No ICs missing that are needed or anything?

 

Thanks! :D

Adding to the Control Panel

Submitted by Punkyclown on September 2, 2019 - 12:52pm

Hi All, Can someone explain how you add programs to the Control Panel?

Seems every System disk I put in has a different set of items in the Control Panel.

I would like to build a set that really works for me.

Appreciate the advise.

Apple II / II Plus Clear Case Project

Submitted by lpp71 on August 31, 2019 - 8:26pm

 

We've worked really hard to bring a second project to follow up the Macintosh SE and SE/30 clear case project.  Based on survey feedback the Apple II was the one most people wanted to see.  As a result, we worked hard to bring this project to life.  Now the time has finally come, the Kickstarter is now live.

Hi everyone,

 

Brand new to your excellent site.  I have an Astec PSU from a 2e and have found T3 Transformer faulty.  I have searched up and down and can't find out what this is to replace it, I really need help.

 

 

 T3 is just below the WARNING transformer.  D1510 is printed on the item.

PAL IIe Colour Monitor - no colour (sort of?)

Submitted by Joudan on August 28, 2019 - 7:04pm

Hey all,I have a PAL Apple IIe Colour Composite CRT monitor that's acting strangely. It's refusing to display in any colour but one, aka. it's monochrome, but I can change the overall colour using the bias adjustments pots inside of the case. Take a look:https://imgur.com/a/b4Oy2LQ/I've tried it with both a PAL and NTSC PlayStation 1, both display in monochrome (NTSC is expected to be anyway but I thought I'd try it just in case).

loading asm & Applesoft program

Submitted by acenewman on August 28, 2019 - 2:30pm

Working on some interfacing experiments.  They come from a book called "Interfacing & digital experiments with your apple" by Charles Engelsher.  It requires me to load both an assembly program and applesoft program at the same time.  The applesoft program calls the assembly program as a sub routine.   I wrote the assembly program using Lisa v2.5.   Can't figure out how to back out of Lisa once the binary is loaded and lauch the applesoft program???  If I try to load the assembly program outside of Lisa I get a file type error message.  Could I be getting tripped up by two different ver

Apple IIc keyboard - external options?

Submitted by Statsman1 on August 25, 2019 - 9:10pm

Hey everyone!

Did anyone ever find an alternative or hack to allow an external keyboard with an Apple IIc?

I have a IIc that has a somewhat battered keyboard, and would like to perhaps mod it to allow a new keyboard to be attached to it.

Thanks for any info you can throw my way!
