The upper pqrt of the test crate, showing the Voltcraft power supply for
the piggy power (+5V, to left prototype converter card) and the receiver
power (-5V, right prototype converter card). The (specially modified!) VME crate hosts, from left to right, a prototype converter card (slot 0), with a electrical-optical converter (EOC) on the back, a prototype converter card in slot 5, with a optical-electrical converter (OEC) on the back, and two production converter cards in slots 8 and 9. |

|
The Macintosh IIci, opened, with the Microtron interface in slot E |
|
|
One converter card with the shield removed. In the lower part is a wire loop, which can be connected to "int" or "ext". For the TEST it must be connected to "int", otherwise an interlock will not allow to switch on the powers! |

Close up of the loop in CORRECT position for the tests |

Daniel, about to start |
|
|
The electrical connections are installed. Note the cross-over for the piggy power cable. |
|

|
|
This is all very nice, but it would be even nicer had we not forgotten the OPTICAL cables! |
|
|
|
|
|
Optical cables installed (only one receiver per piggy; this would be enough if all fibers worked, which - of course - they didn't!) |

Test setup, almost working... |

Lower half of the test crate with the OnSiRoC VME crate, which also contains the MacVEE card, and two power supplies for OnSiRoC-power (+5V and -5V) |
|
|
It works, but can't really see it... |
|
|
...not much better. Trust me, it works! |
