[net.micro.cbm] MW-350 interface, Music Const. Set

rwh@aesat.UUCP (Russ Herman) (12/11/84)

Well, I got a chip set to install the buffer in the MW-350. Of course,
the owner's manual doesn't tell you what to use. Two of the chips are
obvious: 2K X 8 static rams (I used 6116s - there's a 65C02 on the board).
The third chip, I found out after calling Lakewood (Col.), is a 74LS10.
I can now report that after installing the buffer, the combination whizzes
right along at printing Music Construction Set output. I also discovered
that it is easy to jumper pins 18 and 35 with a piece of telephone wire
at the back of the ribbon cable connector, enabling the interface to draw
power from the printer. So now I can report complete satisfaction with
the product.
