Assuming you don't disassemble the unit so that you can clean the
non-electronic parts more thoroughly; When you let the unit dry, try to
tilt it almost upside-down so that the evaporating water passes over the
non-electronic under surface of the keyboard enclosure.

I have a Hazeltine 1510 which needs some TLC with a soldering
iron, but I lack schematics...does anyone have schematics for this
terminal?

It looks like the IBM 5360 in Kansas is back on ebay (the seller says
that the buyer didn't pick it up; probably didn't realize the size of
these things...)
http://search.ebay.com/130059850446
If I had room for it, I'd probably be tempted to go and get it.
BTW, does anyone know what happened to the 1130 in Indianapolis? Did the
machine get moved out ok?

I just received a Micronet Raven ProPDS card (2 NCR UWSCSI chips on an 040 PDS card for Quadra era Macs) and can't get it to work. This card was supposed to be the fastest SCSI you could get on a 68K Mac:
"The new Raven Pros offer access times as low as four milliseconds (ms), and sustained writes of up to 17.2 megabytes-per-second (MBps), according to Taradalsky. MicroNet will deliver the disk arrays in two separate products: RavenProBus, a NuBus board for Quadra, Centris, or Power Macs equipped with a full-length NuBus slot; and Raven ProPDS, (Processor Direct Slot) a card for Quadra or Centris PCs with an 040PDS."
Anybody ever use one of these? The card without a HD seems to hang the system when booting into OS 7.6.1 on both a Quadra 950 and a Quadra 800. The card used to be made by Storage Dimensions, MacinStor line (before it was sold to Micronet in 1994) and called either the Data Canon 040 PDS or the Digital Video SpeedArray. There seems to be 3 jumpers on the card that I have no clue about.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Fred,
I subscribe to a mailing list called midrange-l hosted at midrange.com. It
is monitored by people who most likely would know the answer to your
question so I forwarded your question to the list. Here is the information,
which was returned. I hope it helps with your project.

In case it wasn't clear from Mark's response, under SSP by default
Output from certain utilities including $LABEL goes to a printer (typically
spooled). At any time in a session you can issue SYSLIST CRT to cause
future output to redirect back to your terminal, or SYSLIST PRINTER to
revert back to printed output. Using SYSLIST CRT is somewhat like
piping DOS output to the MORE command. You get a screenful of information
then it pauses for you to pres Enter, then you get another screenful of
data. You cannot scroll the data. Unlike MORE, the pipe isn't done on a
per command basis; using SYSLIST remains in effect until you change it again
(or sign off).
If you don't want each line of data to be truncated after 75
characters, use SYSLIST CRT,FOLD instead.

DISPLAY is not a valid OCL statement. DISPLAY is the name of one of
the DFU procedures, to view a file in read-only mode. Other DFU procedures
included ENTER or UPDATE or LIST. DISPLAY is similar to the LISTDATA
command in i5/OS.

I've got the weirdest disk drive ever.
It's a standard 5.25" mounted inside a factory made metal enclosure. It
has a fixed power cord coming out the back with a power switch. Inside is
a simple power supply (transformer and a couple regulators and capacitors)
that puts out +5V and +12V. There's a power connector going into the disk
drive power socket.
Here's the weird part: there is no data cable. There is no port or
connector or anything on the enclosure for a data cable. There's not even
a cut-out for a data cable.
It's basically just a disk drive that powers up and spins if you put a
disk in it. I initially thoughtt that it must be a degausser or
something, but there's nothing inside that would indicate any such
operation.
OK, I admit it. I'm stumped.
No markings on the enclosure anywhere.
Any ideas?
Responses copied to me directly would be appreciated. Otherwise, I'll
follow any follw-up thread in the archives.
Happy Holidays!!

Not possible. The ACR is simple FSK and the KCS is redundent FM.
As to the latter question of component use... the ACR was intended as a
modem (bell 103) and it's design was based on that.
