Fluke 9010 keyboard question
does the keyboard do anything if you do not have the video card fitted ? i.e. if I try to implement the keyboard adapter, can I test it without a video card Thanks Mike _______________________________________________ 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/
If you had a TL/1 program written and stored that only opened the keyboard channel for input you could spit out chars to the VFD for a test... But its a bit chicken and egg.. i could write it and paste it here, but you couldn't put it onto your 9100 over serial without a keyboard/videocard to put it into /proglib.. I could send you a floppy with the program on it, or someone with a working setup could do the serial thing and create a floppy for you, you then copy the floppy contents (the test program) to /proglib. Or, someone over there in the UK who knows how to write a quick keyboard->character dump does it for you ;) let me know if you need help...

Hi Andy, if you could send me an teledisk image of the floppy with a test program on then I can write it out to a disk and then run it from there or copy it to the hard disk. Thanks Mike On 06/02/2017 16:56, Andrew Welburn wrote:
