Hi Corey, I have one, I just recently got it dead, and it was a 10 minute fix happily. If you ever have a problem where there is no powerup and the AC power is not coming out of the IEC/Fuse/VSelect assembly at the rear, one of the pins to the little PCB sandwich that is the voltage selector is only a right angle solder connection to the rear PCB, and this one had cracked the solder on that pin (the solder is the only mechanical strength in it, others are ok). Anyway, all but one of the labels have fallen off the ROMS in my one, it is base software V2.40, 02/26/87 and the Library ROM I cannot identify, but in the Library Menu it says V1.60 It looks like you can put another library ROM in one of the front sockets, and then in the menus select to use that one instead... Would you mind posting or emailing me your later version ROM images, and locations for which ROM is which as my labels are off? I was about to backup the ROMS in mine today, I'll zip it up and send it later. I'd love to see the disassembly and any other info you have :) Do you have manuals? I have nothing but the unit... I have the Micro Sciences ICT-101 (Dallas, TX) also, an older unit, and to my surprise it is obviously the same company that made the two, although the boards are different, the appearance and layout are very similar. I have the manuals and schematics for the ICT-101 but they're not nearly similar enough in electronic design. thanks, Marc ----- Original Message ----- From: "Corey Stup" <Corey@stup.net> To: <TechToolsList@flippers.com> Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 2:01 PM Subject: Micro Concepts Boardwalker 101
Does anyone else have one of these units? I've disassembled the software in order to update the unit to a wider range of devices supported. Looking to see if anyone has any other version of firmware in their unit.
Mine has the base software as V2.50, 03/19/87. Library is "STD" V1.6 2/18/87.
