Hello,
I buy a Zenith MasterSport 286 model zwl 212 03 computer.

Does anyone have the manual in PDF format?

I can not find the bios battery.
Does anyone know where the battery is located?

Greetings and thanks.
 
Is that the model that had a clip in front to keep it closed? You made me have to think about that one. IIRC that was one we co-designed or outsourced Goldstar to build. They were not as robust and well designed as the larger Supersports. It had a multiple Ni-Cad battery pack bundle above the keyboard. For some reason I think the board also had the brightness / contrast controls on it or near it.
 
Brings back memories. IIRC the batteries were by the status led's and the brightness/ contrast controls.
 
I just picked one up as well, with no power supply. I'm hoping someone in here has a pin out map so an 8pin power connector can be made for it. 11 Volts is a bit odd too.
 
Also, be careful with buying the power supply. The model was an Astec ZA-360-3, but apparently Goldstar/Heath/Zenith put a custom connector on it. I bought a supply, but it just has a 5.5mm standard barrel jack on it.

I'll try taking mine apart, if nobody else can find the information.
