Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Re: Restoring a Series IIx - Some help needed
2008-02-24 by Harald Feldmann
Hi David, I checked several of my q133 boards and I did not see a 'fix' cable on any of them. I also checked the manuals (IIx and III) for any clues but no mention of it. I also checked the manuals for wiring schematics and color codings for your light pen, but the color coding is not part of the manual (how surprising from Fairlight). The light pen looks similar to one of my pens. I too have several IIx monitors of varying revision and not all pens will fit all monitor casings. I too will likely need a replacement connector for a light pen as it was demolished by the person selling the unit to me. He apparently tried to disconnect it, not knowing the trick. I'd appreciate feedback on what type you find and use. Your unit looks great cosmetically ! Good luck ! Harald
