Where can I locate one adapter to a VGA monitor ? I don't have actually one
3 BNC
connectors monitor.

Aha. If I understand you, I need to do the swap with one HP-HIL keyboard.
Can I use the serial console for input/output once I do the swap, or I must
use ever the HP-HIL keyboard ?
Just by the way... What's about one HP-IB terminal ?

Good question. Let me check the CPU a moment...
One A1416A board
One HP 98574 board with... TWO memory chips
Just by the way... What is the 34 connector in the HP 98574 board ?
Maybe a floppy connector ?
Same for one EIGHT dip-switches bank in the A1416A board.
Thanks and Greetings
Best Regards
