The design is quite neat, with the plastic chassis with drives and CRT lifting off the rest of the system, which is mounted on a steel baseplate.
There is a card cage at the rear with two special slots (Power Supply Board and Video and Deflection Board) and 6 general purpose slots with:
- Processor card
- Memory Card
- I/O Card
- Video Control Board
- Floppy Disk Controller Board
The slots are arranged as two columns of 4 cards.
The video deflection card was missing from the second unit so that put restoration of that machine out of reach.
There are additional I/O adapter modules at the bottom of the unit on an inset fascia.
Also mounted on the baseplate are:
- A transformer/terminal block for the linear power supply
- Power switch
- A 5V regulator on a heatsink
- An anode voltage power supply for the CRT
- A small speaker
- Brightness control
The earthing approach looks solid.
The transformer appears to be in good condition. It has a terminal block for setting the line voltage. This was set to 220V, but I have moved it to 240V to make life a little easier for the power supply. Perhaps there was a reason for pumping up the voltages, but the supply outputs look ok.
There is a power indicator for each supply on the backplane.
The +26V was a little high.
The drives are Micropolis 1015-2 77 track units similar to the ones on my Exidy Sorcerer.
