Service Manual - or help :-)

Service Manual - or help :-)

2008-01-28 by saerling

Hi guys.

I am trying to fix this old Emax SE Plus sampler I just got, but there 
seems to be a problem with the access to the floppy drive.
The problem is NOT the floppy drive, but maybe the controller.

Do any of you know where to locate the floppy controller chip on the 
main board ? Or maybe someone has a service manual ?

Thanks;

The Floppy controller were used by Atari also, and is available from  
some atari repair shops. search for atari and wdc1772 I think it is....


regards,

Thanks Ted.

I found the WD1772 chip on one of my working Emax and I exchanged it 
with the one on the non-working Emax - but still no luck.

It's behaving really weird in my opinion.
But hopefully I'll get it sorted.

Thanks a million for your answer;
