There's no sub for the video card.. and they are tough to find. Took me about 5 years to get one. I would recommend using the system with the front panel first, really get to know its functions and capabilities with that first, don't rush in to feeling you need to get the programming interface before you understand everything else on it. The programming learning curve is quite steep as it is. Even when i had the programming interface all setup, i still used the front panel mostly until i had developed some time-saving programs years afterwards. To this day, i still breakout into using the front panel every now and then, its super quick and easy when working on unfamiliar pcbs, instead of trying to program something up, plus is neat and compact, with a display and keyboard right there instead of having to get out the keyboard and plug it in, and switch to using the video monitor output. YMMV, but my recommendation is to use it from the front panel and don't chase after the programming stuff right away if you are a hobby collector. You are missing *nothing* from the functionality of the machine if you don't have the keyboard and videocard yet. Obtaining those parts does open up a vast world of possibilities for sure, but those possibilities come at a high cost of your time needed to learn the language and write programs that work, tailored to the UUT. The time/effort cost versus reward on that part very often outweighs itself. Andrew Welburn http://www.andys-arcade.com On 28/12/2015 06:57, tonyhtbsusa wrote:

The 9100 is not a script-based system. Disregard anything you learned about scripting on the 9010, it's not transferable. Would you try to load Mac programs on a PC? Same sort of analogy here, 9010 stuff is a totally different system, they don't share anything.
When you get a video card and keyboard, you will open up to the wonderful world of the TL/1 programming language which is far more powerful, and useful than any scripts :)
Until then, do like I did for the first 4-5 years of being a 9100 owner, get trick with every function through the operators keypad.
Yes you can use your 6502 pod with it, the image contains all pod libraries and software needed for any pod to be used on the system.
It's an old but familiar piece of advice, but - read the manuals. Seriously do, you have to, to get your head round how it works, and how you can use it.
Enjoy!

I have a question I am new to the 9100a My fluke 9010a has serial and fide to make scripts and send them over to it Works great
I just upgraded my fluke 9100a to a sd to scsi adapter
http://www.codesrc.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=SCSI2SD#Alternative_O pen_SC SI_Projects Upgraded roms from andys site http://www.andys-arcade.net/personal/tech/fluke9100/index.htm No keyboard no video card Flashed the sd card with 6.1 dd image on 256meg sd from andys site
v6.1 software and v6.1 editor . Its a bare-bones install of software and pod libraries, no user programs or UUT's provided.
9100a passes mem test and boots I Can do a self test with my 6502 pod and passes How do I get it to load and run a scrip ? Can I send data to it from fide over serial ? Can I make a script in fide and save it to disk ? and load it in 9100a if so how ? Am I missing something Tony Hi-tech

I am running the image on an SD card using the scsi SD adapter made by that cleaver Australian guy linked to and spoken about on this very list.
Make sure you have updated the BIOS chip if you are using a 9100a as the early released did not support the software the later image was made from.
I sent John a dump of the latest firmware V1.3 for the 9100ft and it is on the FTP.
Andy has put together a brilliant resource on his website including the process to upgrade the ROMS.
