- Sorry about the last message, hit the wrong key. You have to solder a
- wire & connecter to an A4000 WE to connect the WE to one of the 3000's
- CIA chips. If you have a 16MHz machine you will need to change about 3
- or 4 jumpers. Lastly, the WE does not physically fit in a 3000 desktop
- machine. The 2 solutions to this problem are: 1. take a hack saw to your
- drive bay, 2. leave the cover off the case.
-
- I don't remember the jumper settings off hand, the wire you need to
- solder goes in J4 (I think). It's located at the bottom right hand
- corner of the WE. The other end connects to the bottom right hand pin of
- one of the CIA chips (I'm afraid I don't remember which one). If you
- need the details let me know & I'll look at my setup & send it to you.
