Well, it’s obvious that the person is working on an M 24 or an XT computer and mine is a 386. The lines for the keyboard may be different. Not sure I have not been able to find schematics for my computer computer unfortunately, that’s where

But I will continue my search

Good luck on that adapter…

This guy did it, but it is not for the faint of heart.

Good morning
 
I am looking to find people in the group who have experience with the Olivetti M380 series computers and/or the AT&T 6386WGS.
 
First off,
 I am looking for power supply schematics and have questions on the keyboard wiring.
The computers have a DE9 keyboard input and I am looking to make an adapter for a standard XT/AT or PS2 keyboard, if it will work.
 
The usual internet searches came up with all kinds of info, but nothing on the keyboard input, conversion, adapter or power supply schematics.
 
If there is someone knowledgeable on these computers, please don’t hesitate to get back to me.
By the way,
 
The is some ok YOUTUBE videos on Olivetti models, but no real details or sources for schematics that I’m aware of.
 
Thank you 
 
Mike Rosen
