    Macintosh IIsi PRAM problems ...

    The same behavior also occurs with the original 3.6V battery. If the computer is connected to the mains but is switched off, everything seems to be fine. However, as soon as I switch off the mains and the computer is left for a while, the PRAM is erased. The battery is not discharged. The...

    Macintosh IIsi PRAM problems ...

    I took a closer look and it turns out that the pram stays active for a while after it is switched off but is lost overnight. I'm now going back to the original 3.6V battery...

    Yes I think so ... I change the cell fro a new one (maybe a 3V cell is to low?)

    I successfully repaired my Macintosh IIsi ... https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/iisi-fault.47209/ ... but I noticed that the computer has a problem with the PRAM, it always loses the settings it has made after switching it off and rarely but not.

UF5 Pin18 (D8) has no contact with the Simm socket pin3 UG5 Pin13 (D21) has no contact with the SIMM socket pin20 Unfortunately the VIA from D8 was under the ALS245 and had to put a wire around the board. On D21 I was...

    IIsi fault ...

    The new electrolytic capacitors were in the mail today. I equipped the power supply with new electrolytic capacitors and now the IIsi reacts correctly to the power button and can also be switched off again, which was no longer possible before. The chime of death is coming straight away now...

    Monochrom Nubus Video Cards ...

    There are relatively many Nubus monochrome graphics cards with a DB9 video output. Are these always TTL outputs or are they mostly ECL outputs? TTL outputs can simply be passively connected to a VGA connection. Is there a pinout somewhere for the different DB9 video outputs?

    IIsi fault ...

    I soldered the one ram on the Powersuppy connector a little messily because you can't get to it without unsoldering the connector, it doesn't look that great but it's okay

    IIsi fault ...

    I think next is recapped the PowerSupply but my Voltagemeter say the +5Volt is fine ... But I do it. What surprises me is that the error sound takes a long time to appear. And when you plug in the power, the computer turns on immediately, which is strange ...

    IIsi fault ...

    I recapped the Mainboard last Year with Tantal ones and all was fine. The PowerSupply is original and not recapped.
