Just in case anyone out there needs to replace the battery
in their RT, they can be Special Ordered through your local Radio Shack.
Amazingly, the IBM-RT is actually listed in their battery cross- reference,
but in case YOUR Radio Shack is lame, the P/N is CLB-5293/W

pages 9-3 thru 9-23, and from Chapter 5, pages 5-85 thru 5-114.

Ed. I have a different illustration
of the keyboard connector, it seems. What the User Setup Guide and Operations
Installation shows is a DIN-like port, while the case illustrations clearly
show a rectangular port. YMMV.
Mouse Connector
View is looking into the connector (male receptacle) socket on the back of
the RT system unit.
+--------------+ 1 = Ground
| 1 3 5 | 2 = Transmit to device
| | 3 = +12 Volts
- 2 4 6 - 4 = -12 Volts
| | 5 = +5 Volts
+----------+ 6 = Receive from device
Keyboard Connector
View is looking INTO the female connector socket on the cable attached to
the keyboard.
+--------------+ 1 = +5 Volts
| 5 3 1 | 2 = Keyboard Data
| | 3 = Speaker Signal
- 6 4 2 - 4 = Speaker Return (+5V)
| | 5 = Ground
+----------+ 6 = Clock (diagrams in the book seem to indicate
that clock is generated BY the keyboard)
