Emax

Add SCSI capability to your Non-SCSI Emax 1.

I currently have 5 kits available.
I have sold 25 of these kits.
I have only had to do "after the sale" fixes on 2 logic boards, so  
most people are successful installing the kit themselves......

Emax logic PCB Rev (version) 2 and 3 can be upgraded. Rev 1 boards  
cannot be upgraded.

A rev 3 board will require no modifications of the logic board.
A rev 2 board needs modified- instructions available at the Emulator  
Archive on the web.

Each set of chips will be tested in my Emax to verify operation prior  
to shipping.

Kit includes:
IP379a PAL
SCSI Capable EPROM (boot prom)
AM5380PC SCSI Controller
28-pin socket for the EPROM
Wire-wrap wire for the necessary modifications.
50-pin SCSI internal ribbon cable (non-terminated).
HD-capable Emax OS disk (either SE or Non-SE... please specify when  
ordering in your paypal comment).

Each kit is $50.

Shipping in the US is USPS priority mail. Up to two kits is $7.25 for  
shipping.
International Shipping varies.

The kit does not include-
HARD DISK /SCSI Drive
"external SCSI adapter board" / or external connector- but external  
connectors are readily available from many sources (ebay or online).
A mounting plate to mount the HD (make one from sheet metal or steel,  
etc) -
A power splitter - I am not including this as I have different reports  
as to whether this is needed for all emax.
Some Emax units already have a power cable for a hard drive. Both of  
my Emax did.

This kit has been successfully used with:
SCSI Zip
SCSI Compact Flash
SCSI hard drive
IDE PCMCIA drive (works via an ACARD SCSI adapter.....)

The modifications are not extremely complicated.
You need to be reasonably skilled with a soldering iron to perform the  
modifications.
I am not responsible for failed modifications to your logic board.

If you are in doubt as to whether you can successfully install the  
kit, I will install the kit onto the Emax logic board for $50 in  
addition to the kit price (does not include shipping).

This includes:
SCSI chipset kit
Installation Labor
Verification of floppy and SCSI boot.
OS Floppy
Internal SCSI cable.

Installation for Emax Rev 2 boards only.

Working boards only.

Upon receipt of an Emax board, I will test that the board boots and  
appears to work properly.
If the board does not succeed boot test, I will send it back and not  
attempt installation.
In that event, money would be refunded minus the return shipping cost.
