The following is archived in /pub/apple2/hardware on

Name:   Apple SSC
Type:   Super Serial Card

Short description:
        The SSC gives the Apple ][ a serial port (RS232). Up to
        19200 baud are possible. Full handshake is supported.

Installation:
        The card plugs into Slot 1, 2 or 3 of the Apple. Slot 1 is
        usually for a serial printer (Imagewriter), Slot 2 for a
        modem and Slot 3 for a terminal.
        The DB25 connector goes to the printer/modem/terminal line,
        the 10-pin connector on the other side of the cable goes
        into the cable socket at the rear side of the card.

Jumper settings:
        The card has two jumpers and a additional jumper block.
        The jumper block can be installed two ways:
                1) Arrow pointing towards the word TERMINAL
                2) Arrow pointing towards the word MODEM
        Jumpered as MODEM, it will wire thru, jumpered as TERMINAL,
        it will twist 2-3, 4-5 and 6-20 (called null modem).
        The jumper switches are called SW1 and SW2, the switches
        are numbered SW1-1 to SW1-7 and SW2-1 to SW2-7 from left
        to right.
                SW1-1   SW1-2   SW1-3   SW1-4
