Hello all,

I have a pair of original Operator's Handbooks for the Lear Siegler
ADM-3Ainteractive display terminal.
One of the manuals is copyright 1975, is 5-1/2"x8-1/2" high, 40
pages or so. The other is copyright 1979, is 8-1/2"x11" high and is
also about 40 pages long. Both seem to cover about the same material,
which includes spec's, some basic use information, settings of internal
and external dip switches, and info on the interfaces on the rear of
the ADM-3A (RS-232 vs. 20 mA current loop).
Manuals are in good condition, but are of no use to me since I got
rid of my ADM years ago (there's only so much room in the basement for
nostalgia!).

$10 (by check, M.O. or Paypal) gets both of these shipped book rate
to anyplace in the Continental U.S. Please contact me by e-mail at
***@adelphia.net - I don't check groups frequently.

Thanks.

used to have hundreds of them. Now I'm down to about one of each for
both the ADM-1 and ADM-3 and that includes the service manuals. I
supported hundreds of them at work.

I think we dumped the last ADM-3 late last year. It was being kept as a
spare, but the others had been long gone.

The most interesting thing is that the ADM-3A *HAS* *NO* *PROCESSOR*!!
It is all 74xx series TTL, a LOT of it, and the manual has the
schematic.
