This was helpful, thanks. Unfortunately, I did not find anything
specifically related to the specific PROM/RAM board that I have.
There was a pretty good manual related to the VG PROM III. I'm sure
there is some overlap with my board. The documentation I have for my
board is very sparse. I'm not sure if this is all that is available,
but it discusses jumpers on the board but doesn't give details on how
they are configured, or a description of setup and operation of the
board.
I tried what I could decipher from my docs, but I haven't seen any
signs of life. It's also possible that the board is not working, but
I'd like to be sure I'm actually using it correctly.
Any other pointers appreciated.
Thanks...Win
Does anyone have experience with the Vector Graphics
PROM/RAM
card...like this one.
http://www.classiccmp.org/dunfield/s100c/vector/promram.jpg
(This is not my card...mine is not jumpered in upper right.)
I have some documentation with mine and two PROMs loaded in A0 and A1
(VIMON loaded on them), but am having some trouble getting any
response from it. Most likely a config issue or a conflict with other
RAM.
Win,
There are two resources that might be useful to you:
1. The VECTOR-GRAPHIC mailing list, inhabited by a couple of former
Vector employees, among others -

2. The Vector Graphic file archive -

Hi Win,
I think I have you covered. I have an unopened Vector Graphics RAM/ROM
Revision 3 board with full assembly guide/user manual/schematics. Includes
source for a memory test program, the Vector 1 Monitor 1.2 source listing
and an errata sheet with an extra jumper.
Here's a pic of my board/parts:

Oddly enough, my Vector Graphics 1++ has the 12k RAM/ROM board so I don't
have a Rev 3 running. I'll scan the manual tomorrow and email you a PDF.
Hope this helps.

For those who may be interested, I've placed a copy of the Vector Graphic
manual entitled "PROM/RAM Board Users Manual and Assembly Instructions"
here:

Hope this helps,
