Products such as the hard cards, hard drives, memory boards, video cards and more. This book is to serve as a reference guide to the add-on products that Tandy made. In this volume, you will notice that we have listed the jumper settings and switch settings for most of the add-on products produced by Tandy. This volume will not go into alot of long explanations on how-to install the equipment. The other volumes that cover particular systems cover installations. Please be sure you know exactly which model you have before you start upgrading your system. Understand this book will give you the technical information and jumper and switch settings when installing upgrades. If you want plhow-toliln formation on installing upgrades into the lOOO's, check out our video, IISecret's of the 1000's. Vol 1". It will show you how to install upgrades into your system. NOTE: You may see part numbers like 25-1000 or 25-1000A. If it has a letter following the number, then this is a revised part. Some parts may have numbers like 25-4037, 25-4037A, 25-4037B and 25-4037C. Check your model numbers carefully. Sometimes these are MAJOR revisions! The jumper and switch settings for a 25- 4037A will not be anything like the jumper and switch setting for a 25-4037C! - Page 4 GRID/Tandy Cross Reference Chart Grid Model Grid Cat.

These hard cards have an on-board BIOS that will tell the system that it is there. 25-4059 is really a 49 meg hard card. Format the drive with 615 cylinders, 6 heads and 26 sectors per track and you can now have 9 extra megs. The 1000, 25-1000 model, has to have a BIOS ROM version of 1.01.00 in order to use any of the above listed hard cards. This only applies to model 25-1000. All other models have the correct BIOS ROM. When you boot your system, watch the screen for the BIOS ROM version number. If you are using one of the new hard cards that have the ADP50 controller, you DO NOT need to update the BIOS ROM. NOTE: Your system is NOT limited to the size of the hard card or hard drive that you can run. This includes the 1000's. Many people were told that they only could run either a 20 or 40 meg hard drive or hard card. This is simply not true. That's all that was made available by Tandy to the Tandy owner. Many 3rd party companies have been suppling much larger hard drives and hard cards. As of 6/30/94 the smallest hard drive or hard card in current production is the 211 meg. All of the lOOO's, 3000's, 4000's, 25000 and 2100 can run this large or larger hard drives and hard cards with no problems. - Page 9 Floppy Drive Supported Computer 360K 720K 1.2 Meg 1.44Meg 1000 X X 1 1 lOOOA X X 1 1 lOOOHD X X 1 1 lOOOEX X EXT lOOOHX EXT X & EXT lO0ORL 2 X 2 2 1000RL-HD 2 X 2 2 lO0ORLX 2 X 2 X 1000RLX-HD 2 X 2 X lOOORSX 2 X 2 X 1000RSX-HD 2 X 2 X lO0OSL X X 1 1 1000SL/2 X X 1 1 lO0OSX X X 1 1 lOOOTL X X 1 1 1000TL/2 X X 1 1 1000TL/3 X X X X lOOOTX X X 1 1 1200FD X X 1200HD X X 2000 Special 720K 5 1/4" floppy drive 2100 X X X X 2500 Series X X X X 3000 Series X X x X 4000 Series X X X X 40xx Series X X X X Sensation/MPC 3 X 3 X - Page 10
