Fluke 9000A mystery adapter (for me at least ;-)
by John Robertson 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 :-#)#

Does anyone happen to know if these are available online somewhere? I have them and I'm just wondering if I should scan them in. The two I have are: 1) 90 Series uP Board Tester - User's Manual 2) Quicktools for the IBM PC - User's Manual Matt _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist

Fluke 9010a Troubleshooting w/ Omega Race
by Matt Rossiter 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

This might be more of a Vectorlist question, but I thought I might try here. Right now I'm using a 100% working Omega Race boardset to make sure I have the correct setup using the Fluke 9010a and Z80 Pod. First of all, the boardset just won't run with the Z80 Pod. I can see that the Reset line is pulsing. It won't run if I disable the watchdog circuit either. *sometimes* I can get it to do a Quick Ram Test successfully. Other times I get data error messages and if I do a bus test it will report a bunch of data lines tied together. Of course, if I put a normal z80 processor back in the game works perfectly fine. So, I'm just wondering if anyone out there knows how to properly setup an Omega Race boardset for troubleshooting with the Fluke 9010a and Z80 pod. This Pod should be working fine since I used it recently on a Pac-Man. thanks Matt _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist

Eprom programmer interfaces needed.
by Steve Larkins 28 Jun '08

28 Jun '08

Hello all, I was wondering if there is anyone out there that may have some information or even the modules available for the following. - Dataman omnipro2 PIC socket adapter - MQP 200 Pic socket adapter & PROM socket adapter I think the pic adapters are quite simple but I have been told by mqp that the PROM interface has to handle the high voltage and current involved in programming a prom. Many thanks Steve _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist FTP site is: ftp://ftp.flippers.com/TTL/TestEquipment

Introduction and manuals
by Tim Matthews 24 Jun '08

Hi. I've just subscribed to this list after lurking in the archives for some months. I'm in the Midlands, UK and fix arcade boards in my spare time. I only picked this up about a year ago but like to think I'm a reasonably quick learner. I prefer the earlier era hardware but also work on JAMMA boards. I'm working on a system to reverse engineer PALs to improve the depth of coverage in MAME and aid future repairs. I'm hoping to end up with a similar solution to Leopardcats pal-cracker but using a standard EPROM programmer and easy(ish) to use software. Anyway, I managed to obtain a PDF of the manual for Rohde & Schwarz LAC64 logic analyser which I've uploaded into incoming at flippers.com. It took more than a few pleading emails to R&S but it was worth it! I think it's the only freely available copy and I hope somebody else finds it useful. If anybody knows of the CPU specific pods (LAS-Z14, LAS-Z30) used to disassemble from the data bus I'd appreciate a pointer. Finally, I've just bought an ABI Boardmaster 4000 and am looking for manuals, firmware and anything of interest. I've got the programming manual from TTL which I'm working through. I'd appreciate any tips or pointers too! thanks for reading, tim -- trmatthe(a)gmail.com _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist
