      From: joe@user.com              Just a bit more info.              If you remove an XRX-III, I think theres a single cut that you would need to       put       back.              And the 'DIN' connector in the photo. That was for the second generation of       the       buffered EI cable mod. It's a 6-pin DIN cable that went between the main       CPU       and the early EI boards. Originally the buffered EI cable just buffered the       signals       and ran RAS, MUX, and CAS across the main cable to the EI. However that       proved to not solve the reboot/lockup problem on all machines. The later       fix was       to still use the buffered EI cable, but now the three mentioned signals were       taken       from the CPU board through 3 'twisted wire pairs' through the 6-pin DIN       connector to resistor terminations on the EI.              The DIN cable connector in the photo is just another part, not something to       do       with the small XRX-III circuit boards.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
