Pete,
We thought about that, but the plus/4 has an external reset button, in fact, it was about
an inch south of this connection. Now, perhaps a reset induced by another device would
make sense, but I can't figure out which device it could be, or why.

I was going through my vintage machines collection and happened to notice
something strange with a commodore plus/4 I have.
On the right side, there was an additional RCA connector that I had never
seen before this.
Opening it up, it appears to only have a wire jumpered from one of its
connections to pin 6 on the serial port.
I can't imagine why someone would do this. Any ideas?
Pictures are here.

That would create a nice easy external reset button... pin 6 of CBM IEC is
the reset signal.
