Schematics for Intellec-8

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   About 30 years ago, I recovered from a scrap heap an Intellec-8/mod 80 computer that at the time was totally uninteresting. It carries the serial Number 216.

It has collected dust on a shelf since then, but a few days ago, I started wondering if it could be possible to put it back to life again.

It seems almost complete a part from the card that interfaces the backplane with the front panel. 

I have a reasonable experience in building assemblies for computers so I think I can build a copy of this card, but I need the schematics. This was printed in the manaul and I have found a copy on the net, but the scans are a bit fuzzy so the schematics are unusable as a basis for rebuild.

If anyone out there has a decent copy of the Intellec-8/mod 80 manual, I'd be much obliged to receive a high-definition scan.

There is nothing much I can give in exchange except for my eternal gratitude, and the idea of bringing an Intellec-8 back to life should warm the heart of any collector...
