Rapport Drive / Memory Add on

Post by Chuckphd53 »

Got a Rapport Add on today, it was in pretty good shape.
Plugged it in and was able to find the exrta memory, so I am upto 640k now

I think drive two may need some understanding, as I do not have any Docs or Disks.
So I have no idea how this is suppose to work.

Looks very similiar to the Racore addon"

Does anyone have the Docs / schematics etc for this unit..?

I am happy to chat with another owner and get some hands on experience from a pro..

thanks

Quick UPdate..

repaired the power supply had a few bad drive transistors and a 6.2V Zener was bad.

Replaced all the smaller caps with new ones.....The 10,000 uf I did not have on hand but it looked ok

was able to get the second Drive running,
need to get the software to set the clock and other things..
but for now all is good...
