Alpha Electronics Dynamic Integrated Digital IC Tester on eBay
by John Robertson 17 Feb '20

I chatted with the seller and he confirms that it does NOT power up. So chances are the battery backed up system ROM has failed. Item 390623172259 He reduced the price on his own from the original asking $59.95 to $19.95. Pity. I was hoping to find a good one to extract the program from to save mine... If someone here buys it and CAN extract the ROM data I'd sure like a copy!

Re: [Techtoolslist] Fluke on Mario Bros.
by David Shoemaker 20 Apr '18

20 Apr '18

Looking at the manual for the Z80QT pod and the schematic I think I am getting an expected result. I hooked up the pod and hit BUS to run the bus test. I immediately get back CTL ERR showing 00000010 this is the HALT line. Looking at the schematic it appears HALT and INT are both tied together and pulled high. So the fluke can't exercise that line. Any way to ignore that error and verify the rest of the bus test? Oh and according the manual maximum clock frequency is 8.0 mhz. Does that mean this pod support Z80A/B/C ? From: David Shoemaker [mailto:davids@oz.net] Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2011 10:38 PM To: 'Technical Tools Mail List' Subject: Fluke on Mario Bros. Anyone know if you can use either the base z80 pod or the z80qt pod on Mario bros? I know it uses the Z80A but I don't know what the pod is rated at.

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 :-#)#

Success... Fluke FIDE on a 64 Bit OS...
by William Stillwell 02 Feb '17

02 Feb '17

I have written a DosBox Wrapper that will allow FIDE to run the 16 Bit 9LC Wrapper in 64 Bit Windows Machine ( Tested on Windows 7 Enterprise 64 Bit ) You can download the compressed archive here: http://www.coinopflorida.com/fluke/DosBox_9LC.rar Just install Dos Box 0.74 to its default directory, and extract the above files into the Internal Directory of FIDE I am still tweaking it, but for now its will allow you to compile a script, and then send it using the toolbar button, the "Compile & Send" doesn't work, FIDE trys to send the file before its compiled ( I have a good idea what is causing this and can be fixed, but will need to test more ) _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist FTP site is: ftp://ttl.arcadetech.org/TTL/Test_Equipment Archive site: http://seven.pairlist.net/pipermail/techtoolslist/

Fluke 9010A - RS-232 & USB interface!!
by John Robertson 29 Sep '16

29 Sep '16

FINALLY - something many of us have been thinking about for many years has come to pass. A Fluke owner in Italy has designed a nice little PCB for the 9010 that will give USB and RS-232 I/O communication capabilities! http://www.ukvac.com/forum/fs-fluke-9010a-option-1_topic339624.html His name is Piero Andreini and I suspect he is going to get a few emails on this. His email is pieroandreini(at)vodafone(dot)it Nice guy! He is looking for the usual pods by the way - 6800, 6502, 68000, and 6809. Someone needs to make these... This concept could easily be ported to the 9100 I suspect...is Ethernet next?

Some call these adapters but they are really Personality Modules If you have any of the following could you please send me a photograph of the component side and the solder side. Much appreciated. Some of the modules may have an "A" after the number exp. 0117A 0105 - MM2758A 0106 - MM2758B 0114 - MK2764 0116 - TMS2716 0117 - Intel 27128 0118 - M5L 2764 Thanks Tim _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist(a)flippers.com https://pairlist7.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist FTP site is: ftp://ttl.arcadetech.org/TTL/Test_Equipment Archive site: http://seven.pairlist.net/pipermail/techtoolslist/
