The trainer has a lock on it? What is it that needs to be locked?

Maybe this paragraph will help explain:
Quote:
The microprocessor trainer has provision for manually inserting eight faults. Each one of the eight faults is controlled by a switch located under a key lock cover. Each fault that you are required to troubleshoot will be typical of the faults that can occur in any microprocessor system. In the last exercise of this unit, you will troubleshoot the system to locate these faults inserted by your instructor. The microprocessor trainer needs a +5Vdc power supply to operate. Before troubleshooting, the power supply is checked to specification (+5Vdc + 5%). If, after the power supply check, a problem still remains, the troubleshooting process of the microprocessor begins.


(We might disagree with this particular approach to teaching, but there's at least a rationale.)

I was searching the web yesterday for information about Lab-Volt Computer trainers, and this thread came up.
(Yes, I know this thread is several years old.)
I'm not sure if I'll be able to help, but I do have a number of Lab-Volt 8-bit and 16-bit (68000) trainers and add-on boards and texts that the local Vo-Tech got rid of a number of years ago.
I was thinking of getting rid of them, but then, I thought maybe I should go through a few of the lessons with them first.
Anyway, I took a small "inventory" of what I have:
2 16-bit (MC68000) trainer boards.
7 8-bit (6502) trainer boards
6 Interface boards (RS232, 8-bit parallel I/O, IEEE-488, and A/D D/A converter)
10 Memory Expansion boards, (I'm not sure if they are 8K or 64K, or what)
8 Expansion boards with Breadboards for circuit experiments.
2 small cabinets with power supply for storing the trainers and expansions.
This is my first post to this website. I am not trying to spam or shill these things, but if anyone is still interested in this thread, feel free to contact me.

Good to see you here, and thanks for the offer. It's so much better when things are not just disposed of.
