The final specifications for the Equity LT-286e have changed in
one particular. 
Initial documentation indicated that the Intel 80C287-A-12
CMOS-type numeric co-processor (NPX) should be used. Due to
Intel design considerations, this turns out to be in error.

The 80C287-A-12 requires additional power and ground pin
connections as opposed to the NMOS version. This requires 
special connections to the socket that were not part of the
LT-286e design. Intel clearly warns that installing the
80C287-A-12 in a computer not meeting these new specifications
can cause damage to the NPX chip and/or the computer.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THE 80C287-A-12 IN THE EQUITY LT-286e!

The final specification for the NPX to be used in the LT-286e is
the 80287-8, NMOS-type. The Service Support Plan and Service
Manual are being revised to reflect this change.
