Re: Fluke 9100s - Who has what?

<x-flowed>Well, I have the 9010A, and use the Z80, 6502, 6800, and 8080 pods in
service. The main bitch I have with the unit is the signature that it
generates for ROM memory is not the standard Checksum that most programmers
use, so I have to create a new signature for each game rom. One at a time.
Boring. I have not gotten around to using the RS232 port for iMporting and
exporting test routines, but I find I normally just use the most basic
functions on the unit to do RAM, ROM tests and this finds over 90% of the
problems within a few minutes. Other problems are easier found with
standard troubleshooting for whatever game it is. I have not got the time
to learn the programming for this unit so I am not making any tests for I/O
beyond doing a check to see if present. The clock would be useful, it turns
the unit into a signature analyzer (but I already have three of these: Cat
Box, Kurz Kash Sig II, and HP Signature Voltmeter). Anyone interested in
trade for the KK unit?
