Subject: [emax] 6 SCSI kits available 

Add SCSI capability to your Non-SCSI Emax 1. 

I currently have 6 kits available. 
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. 

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. 

I take paypal. djtbs1 (at) gmail.com 

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) - 
or a 5 1/4 to 3 1/2 in drive bay converter kit / rails may work for this 
purpose also. 
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 CF (works via an ACARD SCSI bridge 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 $100 +shipping 

Installation available currently in the US only (for the time being, this 
may change). 

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. 

Regards, 
Ted Summers 
Springfield, OR USA

 The Emax SCSI interface is for Hard drives only.

Emax 1 does not support SDS (SCSI DUMP). So, while you can use G3 with some
Audio / Sample edit software, you cannot use it via SCSI.

If you have the beige G3 tower, you can do transfer via RS422 serial using
the printer / modem port to the Emax.
Done this

However if you got a Blue and White g3 it doesn't have a RS422 serial.
There was an addon board to add the port.....could get that off ebay.
Must use OS 8 or earlier though, if I recall.

The B/W G3 ran OS 9 or 8.5, which was too new for the Audio Sample software
if I recall....

Someone correct me if I am wrong.....

Ted
