Hi --

Having doctored up one faulty drive and replaced the other, my TRS80 Model
3 is now ready for action. It fires right up and will boot several
different Model 3 OSes. The documentation I received with the unit
contains a lot of detail, but it does not describe all of the i/o
connectors on the rear of the unit.

The ones which I can identify from the docs are a female DIN connector for
tape i/o and a female DB25 for serial i/o. The docs also describe the
parallel port as a 34-pin card-edge connector (which I suppose needs a
Tandy-specific cable to attach to a printer), but the problem is that there
are *two* of these 34-pin connectors on the rear of the system, as well as
a 50-pin card-edge connector.

Can anyone familiar with this system help me out with details regarding
these connectors?

TIA --

Glen
