[cctalk] Turbo Pascal Kermit for CP/M

Did you compile in memory or to disk? If you have little RAM, it might be advantageous to compile to disk, creating a .COM file. Martin

[cctalk] Pre 5.1 HP-UX media?

Myself and some more people would be very interested in finding a set of installation disks (or disk images) for HP-UX 2.0 and 2.1 and later up to 5.0. Obviously these have never been or made available, but maybe someone still has a set. These early HP-UX versions were used on HP 9000/200 syste

Looking for copy of BASIC ROM for HP 3396B Integrator II

Recently, I obtained a HP 3396B Integrator II. This is a device for the chemical analysis laboratory. I had hoped that this device contained a BASIC interpreter, but this was not the case. Through the serial interface I can connect a terminal program. Pressing CTRL+BREAK outputs the sign-on mes

HP Integral PC Accessories?

Hi, I am looking to swap or buy the following HP-Integral IPC (portable HP-UX box) interface boards: - HP-IL interface - 1 MB memory board Does anybody have a manual for the HP-IL interface board? Could offer HP 9000 interface or memory boards. Martin

Brother TC-600 Terminal/Typewriter

Hi, recently I acquired a 1980s Typewriter, a Brother TC-600. While not exactly a classic computer, this typewriter was often used as a low cost printing terminal (aka teletype). It has a serial interface and I was able to connect it to my PC. I can SEND characters and text files to a terminal pr

RE: HP 110 AC Adapter

Josh, for testing you can also remove the battery and connect a 6V DC power supply to the computer. Under the battery cover there is also a picofuse which may be blown if someone was tinkering with the machine before. The HP 110 is interesting if you want to play with HP-IL - it has some BIOS rou

HP Series-80 computers - PRM-85 board case? ... maybe!

Hi, I own PRM-85 boards for my HP-85 and 86 machines. While they are very useful extension modules for these computers, they lack a proper case. I hate to destroy a working interface or memory module just for the case. I read in this list that there are more people interested in such a case. So

HP 9845B Model 100 PSU - looking for transformer

Hi, I have got a 9845B which has a defective power supply unit - obviously a very common problem. After replacing the cracking epoxy capacitors I found that the mains transformer seems to have a broken input winding. Maybe someone tried to run it at 220V using the 110V input selector switch. Wh

RE: HP41C Peripherals and Accessories?

Mark, corrosion problems are very common on the HP-41. To discuss the HP-41 calculator, repairs, accessories most of the community knowledge may be found in the discussion forums at http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-6266.html and more documentation also at http://www.hp41.org/Intro.cfm

HP 9845B Power Supply Unit

Hi, a recently acquired HP 9845B desktop computer came with a literally broken power supply unit. One of the ferrite core transformers has a broken core. The lower, U-shaped core part is broken in the middle into two parts. Both parts are still there, rattling around in the coil part / transform

HP Manuals - where's your sense of humor?

While I was reading through the HP 200/300 BASIC Manual I came across some interesting points I hadn't considered in the past. I thought HP manuals were dry and hard to read, but I was wrong. See for yourself... Installing, Using, and Maintaining the BASIC 5.0 System

RE: Preferred way of substituting TFT for CRT Monitor?

Yesterday I checked the 9000/217 98204B combo with my oscilloscope and I can confirm the 25kHz horz. frequency (1V down to 0.3V pulses every 40 us). I cannot measure the pixel clock as my oscilloscope was too cheap (I had to compromise) and thus cannot sample at higher MHz rates. I only see that

Preferred way of substituting TFT for CRT Monitor?

I have got a HP 9000/217 machine with a standard video card. This card has a monochrome composite output (resolution is as low as about 512x400, but I might replace it with a higher resolution card). A small 9" HP monitor that I used for testing only shows me 2 or 3 bands of the image and cannot

HI TEK Keyboard plungers?

Hello, I have been servicing an HP 85A and an HP 85B desktop computer (printer belts, tape drive capstan). While the key caps of the "A" model are plugged into yellow plungers (according to the service manual the manufacturer is "STACKPOLE") the "B" came with white plungers ("Hi TEK" according

HP 2225A HP-IB Thinkjet Parts wanted (in Europe)

Hello, in order to repair a HP-IL device I am looking for remains of HP-IB (yes) Thinkjet Printers. I only need the PCB resp. the HP-IL chip on the PCB for desoldering and implanting into another PCB. The mechanics can be damaged or even missing. Martin
