Nice! Congrats!

It would seem one of the sticks is bad, and the error codes suggests it was moved from slot 3 to slot 4. However, I would just ensure the SIMM leads and the sockets themselves are very clean (if you have contact cleaner, it may help) using some *lightly* abrasive cleaning. And see if the error...

Here's the configuration you're aiming for (from page 6 of the document referenced above):

Excellent- thank you! So, I *believe* you need install the RAM in slots 3 & 4 (in the photo they're in slots 1 & 3). Then you need to move the jumper to the 2/4M side (in the photo it appears to be on the 1M side). If that doesn't work, try the RAM in slots 1 & 2, but from what I understand the...

What to do depends on what version of logic board you have and the RAM size. Is it possible to post a good quality picture of the logic board, as well as the RAM sticks you're using?

Ah - fantastic! Congratulations, and enjoy!

I have a NEC MultiSync LCD1525x that is 1024x768 optimal. It also supports (and nicely renders) 640x480 and 800x600...

I recently acquired a M7649 Studio Display that works well, but the upper backlight seems dim, and the power light is blinking a repeating 'short short long' pattern... which seems to be an error code for a failed backlight. Has anyone repaired one of these before? Is this a caps issue, or does...

This is exactly why I thought to suggest it. And it's pretty common. It's nice when it's something simple. Great looking machine! Display looks great.

Double check the power connector on the logic board, ensuring it doesn't have any broken joints?

Also, a screen session may not have been properly closed. I have had to open the activity monitor and close screen that way.

Just thinking about this, that jumper block would be easy enough to replicate by either wiring the connections directly in the jumper's socket, or using another 16 dip socket as a platform and wiring that. The schematic I shared above shows how it's wired:

Ah, that makes sense. This may be helpful: https://archive.org/details/super_serial_card_050-0045-a_schematic/page/n1/mode/1up

OK, good - if ADT Pro works, then your cable situation is good. Just noting your SSC jumper settings... I believe SW1-6 must always be 1; SW1-5 and SW-6 together set the comm mode, either printer or modem; 0,1 for printer mode, 1,1 for modem mode. Perhaps ADT Pro ignores jumpers with software...

The instructions are suggesting the layers at play here; you open the Terminal app, then launch a virtual terminal with 'screen', then launch the 'getty' utility inside of that screen session to provide the console with a login prompt and access to your Mac's file system. A screen session...

I was trying to make this work a few months ago with getty in Terminal with *some* success (to a silicon Mac fwiw) and really should come back to it. I can't remember my setup with the Apple II, but I remember having an easier go using Kermit on DOS, but generally the result was the same -...

Depends on what you want. Some of us are in this hobby in part to do the repair / restoration work, some of us just want something that works without having to fuss. If you're the latter, then it's probably best to find someone to do the work for you. Someone like @Amiga of Rochester for...

My apologies - I was referring to the connector where the battery mates with the logic board: That connector has the two 'strips' I was mentioning
