Hi,
I got a question on a Kaypro computer that I couldn't answer, never
having seen one of these. But one of you sure knows.
The most likely usage of the 4-pin with center two clipped is for a
speaker. The 4-pin with one clipped is likely a battery connection with
+5vdc on pin-1, the clip as a key at pin-2 and pins-3&4 at ground.
No good guesses on the 9-pin connector, though it might be a header to
run a cable to a keyboard connector on the passive backplane.
It should be OK to plug it into a passive backplane, but I'd be a bit
reluctant on a normal AT motherboard.

I have what appears to be a KAYPRO 286 motherboard
on a full length 16bit
ISA card.
The CPU is a N80L286-12/S, 815DH31 AMD (M) INTEL 1982.
It has two AMD Bios's marked 81-1748 & 49, 1988 KAYPRO.
Facing the chip side, on the left are 8 memory slots. At the left top are a
9 pin connector
and beside it is a 4 pin connector with the center two clipped.. On the
right top it has a 4
pin connector with one connector clipped. There is a red (reset)?? button
on the end plate.
It plugs into a standard full length ISA slot.
Question, What do I have and what are the connectors for? I'd love to see
this work!
Can I plug this into a empty motherboard and power it up, first I need to
know how the
connectors are hooked up.
