I bought my adapter for about $ 25 several months ago and was proud of this good purchase, as I never saw this adapter before and after. :) Until yesterday I thought I was to stupid to install this adapter. ;)

Finally this is what TattleTech tells about Farallons MicroSCSI adapter: SCSI Device# = 6    ◊ Device Status = Device Connected    ◊ Name = NA    ◊ Driver# = -39    ◊ Type = 3   (Processor)    ◊ Manufacturer = Farallon    ◊ Product = EtherMac SCSI    ◊ Revision = 1.10    ◊ ROM Revision...

I tried the Iomega Zip power supply today which delivers exactly 5.0 volts with my MicroSCSI adapter: same results. Link LED is blinking several times when my SE/30 is booting and thats all. Ping tests from both Macs: timeouts... I think I should give up: I've really bought a faulty adapter...

PN574-C    EtherMac MicroSCSI Adapter PowerBook PN575-C    EtherMac MicroSCSI Adapter Macintosh (the number in my first post was wrong)  ADB delivers 5 volts.  Does your adapter work well?

No, it's the PowerBook version which uses ADB power. 

As far as I found out, the power supply is not original: it should be 5 volts, not 4.5, so I'll search for a fitting one. 

And so I did, I also changed the SCSI ID. The Link LED is blinking now when I restart the SE/30 and network software extensions are loaded. After that, the Link LED is dark again.  I installed several software packages (Asante, Farallon) to get any help from its utilities, but that doesn't...

Yes, I did flip the switch. :) Is there a chance to get the adapter work again, if a lightning strike ruined the transformer? In the meantime I found a crossover cable...

Did you read "The Dead Mac Scrolls" and other books frome here? http://vintageapple.org/macbooks/

Several utilities (TattleTech, SCSI Director etc.) can see this adapter on SCSI ID 5 and read it's informations (adapter version etc.). I also opened the adapter. It's power supply should deliver 5 volts - it's 4,8 volts. Power LED is on, but there's no Link LED when I connect it to an old...

Hi, I got this Farallon EtherMac MicroSCSI Adapter (PN574-C), but it seems I can't get it to work - tried it with PowerBook 180c and SE/30.  I'm using the last driver (1.1.2) but didn't find any pdf manual on the wayback machine. Only view informations...

Question 4: there's a wiki guide https://wiki.68kmla.org/index.php?title=Floppy_drive_lubrication&q=%2FFloppy_Drive_Lubrication

Great source! Thank you!

The PRAM batteries are 2 of these rechargeable VL2330 3V Li-ion coin cell batteries soldered together: http://www.ebay.com/itm/282827589539 It's hard to find the original already soldered batteries. 

Agree! 

Great work, Bolle! Thank you very much!!

Are these PB 180 or 180c? If PB 180c they need a good 3 ampere (24W) power supply and will only start for 1 sec with less than 3 ampere.  So did mine. 

I've written a PowerBook PRAM battery guide, which can be downloaded here: https://www.mediafire.com/download/95msic89udzjigd It's in German, but pictures will tell what should be known. 

I got resource fork problems with uncompressed files and FTP.

Problem solved! :) After waiting more than a week - PB Duo 270c without main and PRAM battery - I started my next attempt: I connected the PB via my NewerTech UltraDock 16sce to my Apple Studio Display 15" (M4551 rev. B ), to see if the screen of the PowerBook still wants to go to sleep...
