Subject: RE: Cable for RX50
So, I discovered that the doors were not blocked, as usual, I was just being
too cautious with the amount of pressure I was putting on them. They open
fine and I got the disks out. One was labelled as a system disk for a
DECmate III.
I have not been able to work out the how the cable should be connected from
printsets and other technical docs I have, so I am reluctant to connect it
up in case I get the wrong orientation of the connector (or the wrong cable,
if it is not straight through). From the 630QB technical manual, I believe
the cable I need is a 17-00867-01. If someone has one of these and can tell
me if it is straight through and how the connectors are keyed that would be
great.
Regards
Rob

Many thanks, downloading now.
Regards
Rob I notice though that the connector is not keyed,
any idea which way
to connect it at the RX50 end?
Not a direct answer (as I cannot get to my rainbow easily right now)
but
EK-PC100-TM-001 (the Rainbow 100 Technical Manual) does have cable
pinouts starting at p3-17.
