< Ok, I have a few minutes now to play around with the N* Horizon
< I've been fixing up. I've tried to power it up and it seems to hit the

< the port marked "Video Terminal Port" and played with baud rates
< and other comm settings but get nothing on any of my terminals.
There is no resident monitor or software other than a disk boot in
a standard horizon. It will not say anything to a terminal untill
it boots (assuming the booted code has something to say). If the boot
fails likley the only signals you get is disk activity or the lack of
it.
Make sure you have at least 32k of ram starting at 0000 for CPM or
16k starting at 2000h for NSdos.

Are they personalized for the machine and are all the port headers don on
the mother board set up correctly? Are the media the correct density for
the controller in use?
I have and still run one.
it occurs to me, if you have DOCS for it the setup and checkout procedure
is in there.
