Default switch settings for HP-87 HP-1B Message #1 Posted by David Ramsey on 5 May 2011, 11:32 p.m. Does anyone here have the default switch settings for the HP-1B interface on the back on an HP-87? I have the manual from the HP Computer Museum, but the scan doesn't show the switches clearly. Setting the address is easy enough, but I don't know the default settings for the rest of the switches.

Hope it helps, Juergen

Re: Default switch settings for HP-87 HP-1B Message #3 Posted by David Ramsey on 6 May 2011, 8:51 p.m., in response to message #2 by Juergen Keller I have the manual-- the section you refer to is on page 20. Unfortunately the image of the switches isn't clear enough to discern their settings, and the text doesn't go into enough details.
