Description

This article is from the Apple II Csa2 FAQ, by Jeff Hurlburt with numerous contributions by others.

13.013 I have 256kB on my 1MB Apple IIgs Memory Expansion Card. How do I add more memory and set the jumpers?

         The standard Apple IIgs 1MB Memory Expansion Card can be usefully
configured for 256kB, 512kB, and 1MB.

     For 256kB, the top left 8 sockets (i.e. the left half of the top row)
should be filled. No jumpers should be placed on the pins near the lower right
end of the board.

XXXXXXXX--------
----------------
                         O O (no Jumpers)
                         0 0
For 512kB, the entire top row of sockets should be filled. The bottom pair of pins should be jumpered.

----------------
                         O O
                         0-0 Jumper bottom pair
For 1MB, all sockets should be filled. The top and bottom pairs of pins should be jumpered.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                        O-O Jumper top and bottom pairs
                        O-O
To get the full IIgs mem card upgrade to 1MB you can order a kit of 24 256k x 1 41256 DRAM mem IC's from Alltech (760-724-2404) for $24.00.
