Paragon I

[Uwe Strohbeck]

Hello Paragon I User,

the 'backup-life' of my Paragon I is about half a day (12 hours) !  
This is definitly too short, hi. 
I made some measurements of the backup-power consumtions, specially the
backup-current. 
Without RS232 card the backup-current is abt. 1.5mA. 
With plugged-in RS232 card the backup-current rises up to 15mA ! 
With plugged-in RS232 card, but without the ACIA 6853-Communication-chip
on it, the backup-current sinks down to 0.3 mA !!! 

Can anybody explain this or give me some hints for a solution ?  Have any
Paragon I users with a RS232-card plugged in the Paragon the some problems
? 

Any comments are welcome !
