I have an IMSAI that I am restoring. The basics appear to be working
(front panel, CPU and RAM cards). I have a Processor Tech, 3P+S card
that is next on the list for testing. I have the manual, but the card
was not configured for RS-232...not sure what it was configured for
but it doesn't match anything in the manual. I plan to reconfigure it
for RS-232. I'm trying to locate boot loader code for that board to
allow serial uploading of files from a PC to the IMSAI? I have boot
loader code for a 2SIO board on an Altair that I restored awhile back,
and would like to find something similar for the 3P+S. I want to be
able to toggle in a boot loader routine and then initiate an upload
from the PC to IMSAI -- something similar to this

(at 1:10s in) but with a 3P+S board on an IMSAI.
Also, a picture of your RS-232 configured card and wiring of the edge
connectors would be helpful to make sure I get things right. Any help
is appreciated.
Thanks, Win
