ADTPro questions ...

Submitted by stefan88 on September 7, 2018 - 4:43pm

I am imaging some damaged (durt and water) disks with ADTPro and in the process some questions came up....

1. Is there a way to have a log file alongside with the DSK file with information of the errors - good block / bad block. A Feature request maybe Wink

2. Are there some tools for working with disk images - something like visual map of the disk, disk image comparison and mixing...

Gibberish video upon bootup of an early series Apple ii

Submitted by piedad on August 27, 2018 - 3:25am

What could be wrong with my Apple ii? When I turn it on, I only see gibberish video output. No speaker beep sound.

Am not sure if 1) am not using the right display - just attached it to a video grabber USB dongle. 2) my keyboard is not working hence the reset signal is not being sent to the computer for it to boot properly. 3) something else is wrong.

I had already replaced the power supply with a new one from Reactive Micro.

EDM ROM for IIe

Submitted by Mrarkus on August 24, 2018 - 6:42pm

Apologies if this information is easily accessible, but I could not find it.

Does anyone produce the EDM (Extended Debugging Monitor) ROM or EPROM that I could use in Platinum IIe?

Apple Keyboard cutout

Submitted by dfnr2 on August 24, 2018 - 9:03am

I'm working on a case design and a keyboard design, and am wondering if anyone has a tested, known good pattern for the apple II/II+ keyboard cutout. A standard format like DXF would be great.

Enhancement Kit Issues

Submitted by slim_jimmy7 on August 20, 2018 - 6:55pm

Purchased an enhancement kit from ReactiveMicro. It is the US kit.

I also have the 80 col/64k card. On boot, the correct Apple \\e shows up. When I hit closed Command/Closed Apple/Reset I get multicolored squares instead of lines. I can also put in the PR#3 command and get 80 column text. When I boot into Proterm, ProDos, Agate, or Appleworks 3.0 I get the message: This program needs a 65c02 processor to run.

Looking for the name of the power connector

Submitted by RalfK on August 20, 2018 - 1:58pm

Hi!

Does anyone know the name of the power connector of an Apple II or Apple IIe? I want to give some of my IIe a new power supply but I don't want to cut the connectors from the Astec power supplies because I want to repair or service some of them later.

BTW I decided to buy the Meanwell RQ-65B and RQ-85B (26Euros/35Euros in West-Germany).

Regards
Ralf

Hi,
Is there a diagnostic test for the Apple IIe 80 Column / 64K Adapter that will identify the exact RAM chip that fails the memory test?
Thanks...
