A few years ago I entered the schematics and laid out a design for the
serial board option for the TRS-80 PT-210 printing terminal using gEDA.
I found the schematics in a hardcopy of the service manual[1]. I
revisited the project a couple of days ago and reentered the schematics
into Kicad. I remembered that the reason I never made the board was that
I was unsure of its correctness. The schematics and foil patterns
contradict slightly and a couple wires seem to be missing from the
schematic.
Does anyone here have a PT-210 with a working serial board? I would like
to work with you to beep out various points so I can figure out what's
wrong.
I also found a Youtube video showing a PT-210 with the serial board in
action. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPxpzcFXh-0
