Fluke 9000A mystery adapter (for me at least ;-)
by John Robertson 20 Feb '18

20 Feb '18

I have a pod module here called "Z8 I/F ADAPTER" Fluke #9000-200/AB. It has no cable to the base, just a 40 pin CPU cable. Inside is a couple of RAM chips, and some Fluke hybrid interface ICs. Any guesses? John :-#)#

Re: 8086 pod for fluke?

Hey, that would be my cue :) All of the M72, M82, M84 games from Irem use a NEC V20 which is a 8086 with some extra instructions. It's also pin compatible so the 8086 pod is usable with it. Of course, there aren't exactly many of these around :) Chris (M72 = RType, Dragon Breed, XMultiply, + others, M82 = RType II, Pound for Pound, M84 = Major Title) ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: 8086 pod for fluke? Author: Noel Johnson <nej(a)airmail.net> at Internet Date: 1/17/00 12:09 AM Hello All, I am about to obtain an 8086 pod for a fluke 9010. Did any arcade games use the 8086 or am I going to have to trade this puppy away?? Thanks! Noel

Does anyone know if the scripts for the 9010 work on a 9100a?? It may also be of interest to know that someone (presumably Al Kossow) has scanned and pdf'ed a lot of the fluke manuals and uploaded them to www.spies.com/arcade. There's a fluke directory which has some 9010 scripts and the .exe to compile them, and in the TE directory there are manuals for the 9010,9100 and most of the POD's. (I presume Al wrote the scripts) Unfortunately, the user manual for the 9100 isn't there. Sigh...

Fluke adapter ID?
by Martin White 24 Jul '04

24 Jul '04

Just picked up a small adapter off of ebay, very cheap as a wild guess as it looked like it could have been a replacement for the 8085 adapter that i broke the other day. Well, not surprisingly, it's not the same. Anyone know for sure what it is? It's part number is: 9000A 7201 and there's also 4702 on the sealed Fluke packagin too. It _LOOKS_ to be a blank for making up your own adapters. Googling, get's me a whole 0 results! I wandered whether i could perhaps transplant the parts from the broken adapter into this one? That's if i can work out how to get into them :) Cheers, Martin.

I think i just realised why responses to my posts could be a little low - i keep accidentally responding direct to senders rather than the list. Damn reply button :O) Sorry! Anyways, so does anyone have any idea what this adapter is then?

Disaster!
by Martin White 13 Jul '04

Well i think so for me anyway :O( I have all my Fluke pods in a draw and it's now obvious i need to find somewhere better to store them. Was just rummaging around looking for something and i noticed that some pins were bent on my 8085 pod. I bent them back and pin 40 snapped off. Grrrrrrr.... Thing is, this is pin 40 of a little adapter (genuine Fluke) that is connected to the pod cpu plug. Anyone got any idea what it is and if i need it? At the minute i'm REALLY hoping i don't need it to use the 8085 pod. I can take a pic tomorrow if needs be, but i'm not in the best of moods at the minute, so i'm best off leaving the games room alone for tonight! Martin.
