Allrighty then, what's they're model number and what are they for?

Their lid design is closer to TGCD then CD-ROM2 except they're in white.

oldskool wanted to do some fancy stuff with the PDF before posting it. I sent him a text last night to remind him to come by and pick up the thumb drive with the scans but he's out of town until Sunday.

Is there a Duo version of this manual and do you happen to have it?

I would guess that one would probably exist but if it does I haven't seen it yet.

Here it is everyone.  I didn't bother with formatting it or creating hyperlinks and things, but if anyone wants to spruce it up a bit that would be pretty cool.  I was thinking it would be neat to be able to click certain things (like on the table of contents for instance) and it link you to different areas of the manual.  Say there is a mention of a certain chip, you can click it and it will take you to the blow up schematic of that chip for example.  Maybe a "Back" button to take you back to the table of contents, etc etc.  If anyone wants to try that be my guest.  I was going to do it but if anyone else wants to undertake it and post a revised edition that would be awesome.

Anyways, here is the link to the direct download.  When you click the link click the RECTANGULAR GRAY DOWNLOAD BUTTON and then put your Captcha in.

Hope you all enjoy!  Thanks RoyVegas for scanning them in such a high resolution.  It sure looks good.

I will also be starting another thread with a direct download link.  Hopefully that one can be stickied in here since it is of utmost importance to the community!!

I tried 2 different browsers and the file downloaded was corrupt or incomplete. Can you upload to a simpler file sharing site like www.mediafire.com or whatever ?

[oldskool]

I use Chrome and it works just fine for me.  For a reader I use FOXIT.  Is anyone else having issues with downloading?  If so I can move it to a different server.  Night - if you continue to have problems with it I will move it to another server.

Yeah, I tried it with Chrome (my usual browser) and then with Opera, still no dice... ConHuevos's Dropbox link is currently working, see the full 52 Meg size and it's downloading. Thanks!

It is available here now, too:

...but the download may be slow?

I downloaded it from ConHuevos Dropbox...swift, no problems.

[oldskool]

Oh good.  It should be readily available to pretty much anyone now.

It's pretty interesting!  I will be going back to that garage - want to see if some of the servers in there are NEC related.  Also going to look for the test jig.  Also - there were a ton of belts and electronic repair parts sorted in a large bin.  I am sure some of the belts must be for the TG16CD.  They do take belts right?  Maybe I can find some lasers too.

Will keep everyone updated if I find anything else.  I did not see the computer with the CDROM on top as I don't think they had that unit here in the states.

Holy crap.  I figured such a manual existed, somewhere, and so once in a while I would purposefully look around for exactly that sort of thing, to no avail.    So this is great, dude - thanks.

[oldskool]

You are quite welcome.

The schematic has saved 2 duo and a white pce so far
It needs a sticky
