9100A-8086 documents going up now. Note the main manual needs to be split (scanned as a book - 11X17). If someone want to do this great - I don't know how at the moment. If Adobe Acrobat can do that please let me know the process, otherwise if someone else wants to fix that file into 8-1/2 X 11 pages (and the 11X17 schematics) I'm sure someone will appreciate it (besides me). ftp://ttl.arcadetech.org/TTL/Test_Equipment/Fluke/PDFs/Pods/ Thanks, John :-#)# On 04/12/2016 11:32 AM, John Robertson wrote: > Found my 8086 manual - and the addendum info.

Adapter interface for the DEC-T11 CPU and Fluke pod?
by John Robertson 12 Apr '16

12 Apr '16

Has anyone here figured out an adapter for one of the Fluke 9010 pods to be able to emulate the multiplexed address and data lines of the T11? I am just starting to look at this as I need to access these lines to service an old video game board that used the T11 as the main processor. Any of you not familiar with the DEC-T11 it is a 40 pin device that emulates a PDP11 as far as I can understand. I don't know anything about the PDP11 technically though so am pretty much hacking my way through inventing a troubleshooting procedure, which the manufacturer of the game - Atari (System 2, Paperboy, AFB, etc,) - did not provide. Just flinging this out in the hopes someone here can help.

Atari System II tech info?
by John Robertson 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Has anyone found any service info on the Atari System II boards beyond the basic schematics and patent #4930074 filed in 1986 (thanks to Jed Margolin for the link - http://www.jmargolin.com/patents/atpats.htm)? I have a Paperboy that only shows about 8 'Motion Objects' instead of the 39 that are supposed to be there. All other tests pass fine. Motion objects are blocky and continuously break up. All the 6116s test out fine on the video board, ran them through my standalone RAM tester (RAMTek). The patent looks like my best shot - printing it out and read that.
