I just took possession of a Lilith workstation, including two diskpacks
and some spare boards.....
Alas the Lilith doesn't function . While it still might be easy to fix, I'd
rather have some schematics . Are these obtainable somewhere ?
In particular I need to know if the boards marked "URAM" and "DPU"
are
essential or not, they are missing in my machine.
"URAM" is not the main memory, since I seem to have a complete set of memory
boards.
Documentation I did get was limited to a short userguide with next to none
technical info.
I would love to see this thing get back into life...

Could URAM be 'uRAM' -- i.e. microcode RAM? In
which case it could be an
optional expansion to the control store or an essential part of the CPU.
What boards do you have? We might be able to figure out what they are and
what (if anything) is missing.
My Lilith has the following boards :
MCU : microcode in bipolar PROM's
ALU : 4x 2901 Bit sliceCPU
CPU : Serial channel ??( Has an 1602 UART )
IFU : interface unit.
4x64Kb mem boards ( with 16kb DRAM chips )
DSP : Display interface
DSK : interface to 10Mb removable HD
I/O : one RS232 channel.
Missing are uRAM, DPU, DMA ( only used to drive a laserprinter ) and some I/O
options.
I've never heard about programmable microcode in the Lilith, so I presume the
uRAM is an option.
It could still be a complete computer, but I intend to go
slowly with this one. (i.e. following Tony's rules of checking PSU first etc. )

I'm looking for a Luxor ABC80 computer if anyone has one to sell or trade
for.

I've got an ABC-800, but lacking a monitor, so I haven't been able to test it
yet. =)

Thanks but it's the "80" that I'm most interested in. For some reason,
it's
caught my attention.

Let me know if you're interested in making a trade. I'm always on the
lookout for Apple II clones, like the Golden II, Orange, Pinapple, etc., and
of course, a Luxor ABC-80.
