Greetings all,
Does anyone have the circuit / repair diagrams of the Imagewriter II with the pinouts of the internal Expansion port? I can find the serial port all day long, just not the internal expansion.
I'm building up my dream machine from when I was a kid. I've restored a Apple IIgs to working condition and am slowly upgrading it. A Applesqueezer is in the works.
I've recently received a working Imagewriter II. Found a serial cable in my Powerbook bag, and my old Phonenet adapters. A quick search lead me to the Imagewriter II 32k and Localtalk expansion boards which seem to be unobtanium. However why should that stop me?
Here's the thing. I'm an EE and I'm open to a project. I am willing to admit this is just pure idiocy and wanting to brush off my KiCad skills. What I'm lacking is diagrams of the Imagewriter II and specifically pinouts of the internal expansion port.
Goals:
Considering this port was capable enough that a third party released a 32k expansion + localtalk in one card I should be able to get some compelling functionality in here. Personally I'd love to add the following:

- Memory expansion: Unknown amount
- Wifi: Direct in the expansion no printer sharing via a external computer and rs232 adapter
- Localtalk: Because why not?
