Help need for assembling Infinitiv 1200 tower.

[telonio]

I had this Infinitiv tower disassembled for a couple of years. Finally I made the decision to assemble this extremely fragile tower again. Now I have three issues because I didn't properly store it.

First, anyone knows where exactly this plastic is going? I think it was in front of 1200 pcb but I am not so sure about that.



Second, I can't remember where this 2 pin cable goes, any ideas?



Finally, I can't really figure out how the busboard connects to 1200 pcb.

I can't find any information about these in the web and the Infinitv manual is not helping at all.

Thank you

The only way to connect a busboard to the 1200 is the trapdoor connector. There shoud be an accelerator type connector to slot on to the mainboard. Can't find a picture of yours but here is a similar one

Thanks for the reply.

The busboard has this slot, same as the one in the image illustrated. I suppose there should be a cable that connects the busboard to the connector slot of blizzard 1230 that I have installed. I am sure that it is impossible to find a cable like this. If only there were just the connectors for sale somewhere, I am able to make a wire ribbon cable as I think that the pinout is 1 to 1.

If you mean a way to put the Bliazzard in, it just slots onto the top of the busboard's edge connector after you put the busboard in so the busboard goes between the A1200 and the accelerator.

Hello,
The expansion card is in two parts, the card and the connection piece. This piece therefore allows you to connect the extension card while extending the connector of the motherboard of the amiga 1200, so you can connect the expansion card AND an accelerator card without problem. On the other hand, unless I am mistaken, it is important not to supply the motherboard of the amiga directly, it must go through the ATA P8 and P9 connectors of the expansion card otherwise that will not work and you risk destroying the one or / and both cards.
Have a good day.​

Thanks for the reply.

I am missing that connection piece - that connects busboard to 1200 pcb.

Try contact Elbox because i've not see this connector on their site.

There's no use contacting Elbox because Elbox didn't make it.
