[comp.os.cpm] KAYPRO HELP

D-ROGERS@EDWARDS-2060.ARPA (06/17/88)

I have a friend who obtained a used Kaypro with no documentation, same-same
the NEC Spinwriter.  Can someone share suitable settings for baud rate,
parity, etc. so that the two will talk to each other?  what switch settings
will yield, for example, 1200 baud, 1 stop bit, no parity on the Spinwriter;
and how do we set up the Kaypro to send the char's that way?

*ALSO*, anyone know where documentation for these beasties can be purchased?

advTHANXance, friends, 			[dale]

HELP! Colts Neck, N.J. Volunteer FIre Company has its fund drive database
on a 5 1/2 " disk used with a Kaypro with 2.6M ROBIE disk drive.  Both disk 
drives have crashed and they can't get new ones.  Need a way to copy the 
database from the 2.6M floppy to a regular CPM or MS-DOS format floppy or 
floppies. Other solutions to the problem are welcome.  Please reply direct to:
