Need a new mail-list host for TTL!
by John Robertson via Techtoolslist 29 Dec '25

29 Dec '25

Hi folks, I just got a note from my hosts at Pair.com that they are dropping mailists and that I need to migrate TTL to another mail list service... Anyone have any suggestions? I could change to groups.io I suppose - I would still maintain the FTP directory on flippers FTP site. Anyway, just posting this out there...

HMI (HUNTSVILLE MICROSYSTEMS) HMI-200 Emulators
by Tony Jones 13 Sep '25

13 Sep '25

Hi Does anyone have an HMI-200? I just picked one up cheap for a 64180. https://web.archive.org/web/19980206073825/http://www.hmi.com/64180.html It's lacking the manuals and the software, very long shot but maybe someone here has copies? I was able to get it working using the serial port info from the HMI-200-68000 manual that I believe Al Kossow found and uploaded to bitsavers. By default it's DCE and so needs a straight thru DB25 cable. All day I've been having issues with it hanging randomly. Usually after just a minute or two though it did once stay up for about 20 minutes. Hard to tell if it's a serial issue or an issue with the HMI itself.

WTB: Broken Fluke 9000a z80 cable - 685461
by Tony Jones 07 Aug '25

07 Aug '25

Does anyone have a broken probe cable for Fluke z80 pod (#685461) that they no longer need. I'll happily pay shipping. Bad cable, broken pins etc are fine. #685461 is the later dual 40 pin (grounded) cable not the earlier single 40 pin flat cable. I'm not asking for suggestions on how to make a replacement cable :-).

NEC TK-80A for Fluke 9010A
by BIERMAYER Manfred via Techtoolslist 16 Jul '25

16 Jul '25

Hi, I recently acquired a TK-80A board via Ebay. A label on the back of the board seems to indicate that it was part of a Fluke 9010A training set, as referenced in the 'Introductory Training' manual. The EPROM on my board did not work properly. But a friend from Japan sent me the original content of the EPROM. Now the board is working again and I get the signature F77C for the ROM as mentioned in the training manual. I can provide some pictures if somebody is interested.

Arium ML4100 pod - 80 Series 8048/8051/...
by John Robertson via Techtoolslist 30 May '25

Anyone have any Arium ML4100 pods tucked away? Particularly the 80xx series - that I think is numbered PM-8865? As well as the EPROM for the RS-232/ROM board... Thanks!

Adapter for TMS9900 pod to TMS9981 CPU?
by John Robertson via Techtoolslist 20 May '25

20 May '25

TI's TMS9900 series CPUs - I have a game (Universal's COSMIC GUERILLA) in the shop now that uses the TMS9981 CPU and while I have the TMS9900 pod I do not have an adapter for the TMS9981. Pretty sure I have a RAM (4116) issue, but before I go down the rabbit hole (convert to 4164s) I'd rather run a RAM Test... Anyone have that interface sketched up? Or am I going to have to make it from scratch...(lazy & it costs the customer more of my time) Anyone have any TMS9981s lying around? It is possible mine are defective too. Thanks!
