We just dumped the enhanced character ROMs from a HP2645. 8k bipolar mask ROMs,
90 ns (they need to be fast since they are used as video RAM really). I read
them on the Data IO using their PROM equivalent, AMD 27S181. The microvectors
sets (line set and large character sets) are 9 bits. The 9th

I have now dumped the firmware from the HP2640B terminal. Since the EA4900
ROMs are not much like normal EPROMs in regards to pinout and supply
voltages I resorted to use a logic analyzer to dump the contents of the ROM
simply by parsing out the ROM accesses while the terminal did the selftest.

Thanks Henk! I have a few more screens that need fixing. The most difficult
will be the Tek 4016.

It was a wire for cutting polystyrene blocks. The current was a fews

I did it by heating the crt to about 50-60 degrees celsius and used a
putty-knife.

The photos are from a Philips P2000M system but I did it the same way with my
264X terminals and 9845's systems.
It takes about half an hour to heat
The screen on my HP2640 had degenerated quite far. It was only a spot in
the middle, 2 by 4 inch, that still attached the glass to the CRT. I used a
thin fish fillet knife to dig through the remaining glue.

Maybe I should try that approach again!

Marc, in addition to Mattis’ forthcoming reply, my recent experience with a

wire in, didn’t melt the ‘glue’ very well, smelly. Gave up when the wire broke.

What we did on one of our 2645 terminals was the hot wire method. We then
attached the "implosion"

I assume there are a difference. The document linked to below at least tell
that the original A had a completely different set of ROM chips whilst rev

is there a dif between 40 a and 40 b with the firmware/loader/etc?
