Disk II interface drawing



Here is what I did, for those interested. 

I split the schematic in half 20 pixels to the right 
and to the left. Then I drew a cut line on the center 
of the left half, and an alignment line on the right 
half. Now you can print them, cut the center line on 
the left half, align them and tape them together with 
invisible tape. Or if you can't seem to do it because 
you are all thumbs, I can make it for you and mail you 
one. It looks good and is really clear. 

For those of you who are into this for the thrill, 
I have the roms and Logic Sequencers for both 13 and 
16 sector Disk II controllers and you can use eproms 
(2716) in place of the original PROMs. Build your own, 
Just for fun. I'm making a converter that will give 
you both 13 and 16 on existing controllers, if you 
are into that, again for fun, and they'll be really 
cheap. Not sure yet if I need to double up the sequencer 
since the one on the 16 sector controller should read and 
write 13 sectors with the 13 sector rom. This will be 
switchable, but not on the fly I don't think. I have to 
have prototypes made and try them out and let you all know. 

Anyway, I'm going to do this one next. This is for fun in 
between working on other more important projects.  :o)
