Howdy Is there a version 3 or later of the 68000 pod manual? The reason I'm asking is that page 68000-2 of the [9100] Supplemental Pod Information manual refers to sections of the pod manual ("pod-specific setup information"/"pod manual reference") but the section numbers don't match either version of the manual I have access to (v1 from flippers ftp, v2 in printed form). It seems they happily renumbered between revisions rather than appending changes to the end. Page 1-1 of the v2 manual says it's for version 6.0 of the firmware which I thought was the last version. I can figure out the mapping based on names, but was just curious if there is a later version of the manual based on the above inconsistency. Also, specific to the 9100[FT] does anyone know how to obtain the 68000 pod software version. It's not specified in version 1 of the manual, it's "4.36 Software Revision Level - Address F000 0012" in version 2 of the manual. I get "invalid address" when attempting to read/write any of these pod special addresses (outside normal address range). I just fixed my 68000 pod and I'm trying to figure out what software version it has based on info from this thread: http://www.ukvac.com/forum/fluke-68000-pod-repair_topic342750_post888283.htm... My ROM checksums don't match those listed as v2 or v5 but the EPROMS are 24 pin so they don't appear to be version 6.0 (based on later comment in the above thread).

adding a bit more info, I saw on the ukvac thread a comment about needing to write BF to F000 0028 (clearing bit 6, self-test) , which is "4-46 Error Summary Mask" in v2 of the manual (4-42 in v1). I noticed it is also possible to disable reporting of illegal address errors by clearing bit 5. So I was looking for a pod-specific setup in the 9100 Supplemental Pod Information manual that allowed access to the error summary mask (since trying to directly write to it generates an illegal address error, chicken&egg). I can't however, see one, there is "ERR_MASK CTRL_DR nnnn" and "ERR_MASK FORCING nnnn" which correspond to F000 002A (4-47 or 4-43) and F000 002C (4-48 or 4-44). _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist@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/
