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 :-#)#

Anyone have a copy of the "wallchrt.exe" program from around 1997? Earlier versions apprecaited too. The one claiming to be on the data-io ftp server times out... ftp://ftp.dataio.com/device_lists/_archive/etc/README.html Any copies (PDF) of the Data I/O wallcharts (besides 1986) appreciated as well.

Hi Mario, I'd rather do grounds, power connections, etc...programming is a pain and can be a huge topic depending on the equipment the person chooses to use and what they are trying to read/verify/program. There is lots of info online too. I'll think about it, but you can see I'm not a great technical writer - have trouble with layout and sometimes ramble a bit...never had any training in the field you see. I also have little 'free' time. For the most part you guys are welcome to strip mine flippers.com for info, I do expect reasonable visible credit on any pages where my info/pictures are used (links to relevant page preferred). That allows me to edit the page (I try to never change page names!) in my fashion. You see I am used to updating my web site, and have some ideas I want to add over the next year on tech support - and have little time to re-write articles for other sites.
