expanding the internal memory(ASR 10)

i need to expand the memory of my asr 10(rackmount)does anybody have any do's & don't s,i'm considering doing it myself.i also need to know if the SIMMS i need to buy is the 64 ,72 or however many pins??

I have the documentation for the "ASR-10 Proper SIMM Installation" as released by Ensoniq.

The SIMMS you require should EXACTLY fit the following criteria else you run the risk of an unstable ASR10 at best.

NON PARITY
1MB (8 chip) 35 pin or
4MB (8 chip) 35 pin

The SIMMs must be in groups of 2. That is there are 4 slots. 1 & 2 must be identical SIMMs and so must 3 & 4. If you are mixing 2x1MB & 2x4MB, the 4MB bank must be in the first group.

Also, if you are going to use all 4 slots, change the jumper from STD to EXP.

Be warned, the ASR is a very fussy creature when it comes to SIMM installation. If you are confused or even slightly unsure, email me and I will scan my documents and send to you.

Have I made a mistake by installing 2 of the 9-pin ones in mine? The extra memory shows up in the read-out...
