Submitted by BillO on November 8, 2014 - 1:15pm

Anyone here familiar with this?

Is it:

A) Better than sliced bread and bottled beer?

Dirol Okay?

ADTpro with superserial DIP switch question

Submitted by jrubin on November 3, 2014 - 9:43pm

The configuration for serial as shown on the ADTPRO website shows

SW1: 1001111 SW2: 1101100

With regard to SW2 numbers 3 and 4 (as read from left to right), they are shown to be configured as 01

Table 2-4 of the SSC manual shows

11 - no parity
10 - odd parity
00 - even parity

so what is 01?

Formatting HD 3.5" Floppies on Apple //e's & //c+'s, Every Time

Submitted by mutant_pie on November 3, 2014 - 2:46pm

I made a new thread for this topic as a similar one veered off. I just wanted to share that it IS possible to use HD 3.5" floppy disks with standard Apple II hardware, using the 800k disk drives. I do this on Apple //e's and Apple //c+'s all the time and I really never have a problem.

Apple /// memory problem

Submitted by dramsey on November 2, 2014 - 9:45pm

Anybody here know anything about throubleshooting the bank-switched memory on an Apple ///?

This machine was working perfectly until I tried upgrading the keyboard to a /// Plus keyboard-- this requires replacing the encoder ROM as well as the keyboard.

Simple enough, but the computer would not boot SOS afterwards. It displays the screen and then crashes. Memory diagnostic tests pass "bank 0" and then die.
