Hi, I bought a Polaroid 6500 for x-mas and now I’ve got two questions: 1) In the Handy Board Interfacing Diagram of the Polaroid 6500 at the Handyboard page V+ is connected to the pin 9 of the Polaroid 9-pin connector. But the flat cable to the pin (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

John, I just did the same test, I think what Fred was saying is that IC sets the 0x8000 to accept a startup program if one is loaded. If I poke a 0 to that address then load any program it sets back to 1. I think he was wandering if your IC version (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Fellow Lugnuts, Doe anyone want to purchase a 74HC244 (U5) that "kinda works" ? YES, YES, believe it or not, U5 was my problem !! The mystery is not totally solved, because even using both a logic probe and an o-scope, I cannot see any indication (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

After reading your START button question, I triple checked. I don't (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Since it seems like everything else has been checked, I have one other suggestion after looking at my pcode source. If the "start" button on the HB is pressed during power on, the autostart will be disabled. Has your hardware been hacked at all, (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Wow, What a bugger! This is one of the strangest cases I've seen. Works fine while connected, but not when reset. Works fine on my board either way. Memory and 68HC11 have been traded out. Scope shows no voltage drop at Mem-power durring reset. Both (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
