I am looking for information on the Apple IIe Workstation Card. I have "Inside AppleTalk", "AppleTalk Network System Overview", "AppleShare Programmer's Guide To Apple IIGS", "AppleShare Programmer's Guide For Apple II", the "Apple II Technical Notes 1985 - 1988", Apple II Technical Notes 1989... and I can find VIRTUALLY NOTHING on the card. What am I looking for? Well, I'd like a pinout of the two ports on the card to start. They're 12 pin headers. (I inherited a card without software or connectors) Secondly, any information at all to do with accessing the beast. So far, I've had it for several months, and I haven't even plugged it into my IIe. Any info (particularly on the pinouts or instructions to build a 12-pin header to whatever it connects to) would be appreciated. +---------------------------------------------------------+ | Stephen Brown Toronto, Canada | | Internet: sb@pnet91.cts.com UUCP: utzoo!pnet91!sb | +---------------------------------------------------------+ | Apple II Forever !!! | | (however, as far as the Apple Computer Company is con- | | cerned: "Who really cares anymore?) | +---------------------------------------------------------+ | Like my new .signature. ?

There is a "back panel adapter box" that connects to the two 12-pin headers and has a LocalTalk port and a Printer port. The card allows you access to printers, fileservers, etc. on the network. The part number for the adaptor box is 607-5010. The manuals (030-3115 & 030-1484) don't give any pin-outs for the headers. There is software that comes with it "AppleShare II Workstation Installer (683-5096). Maybe with the part numbers, a dealer can get replacement parts for you. Bob Beason beason@geneseo.bitnet
