Be careful with the cassette tapes. Many of the pressure pads have gone bad. Playing them
can cause the tapes to get folds that will make the tape data difficult to extract. Most
tapes can be opened up and the pressure pads repaired.

I take it you haven't found s100computers.com.
Info for the Compupro Interfaceer II is readily available there, with
scan of original manual with schematic.
http://www.s100computers.com/Hardware%20Folder/CompuPro/Interfacer%20II/Int…
Mem Merch 64K and Jade FDC are listed there as well, I haven't looked
below the link level for them though.
There used to be another S100 site under maben-something but it seems
to have vanished.
It was a lot of duplicate with S100computers but had some additional
stuff.
No I hadn't found that site yet, thanks!
I knew of the maben site but haven't been able to access it for some
time so figured it was gone now.
Anyway, thanks for the pointer. That takes care of the cards, now just
need to find info on the expansion box itself.
This was a pretty complete Exidy setup it would appear. Came with the
Sorcerer, the expansion box, monitor, some drives. Bunch of cassette
tapes and what appears to be a speaker box of some sort with what I
assume to be a volume control on the side with an possible headphone
jack and a ribbon cable with a DB-25 coming out of it.
