Re: HP K21-5321B Digital Clock
Hello, Steve,
depending on how I change the ICs the clock seems to run or not.
What I couldn't get away from is that some numbers are skipped
when setting the clock. This is annoying if you jump from min 58
to 60 then the minutes do not fit anymore. Much more strange is
that the display Data Hold does not go off when the clock is
running and also no matter if the clock is running and has a
plausible time or not always a time error is displayed. If I
remove the J-K flip-flop on the PCB these two indicators are off.
The device seems to be intact but I had exchanged it for an
identical one. I would exchange the other devices if HP had not
used Inverse Logic devices for the counters. Or is there a cheap
replacement for 1820-0119 and 1820-0116?
I would hate to build my own replacement for that...
Due to the inverse logic and the speed, the devices cannot be
tested on my current IC Tester... I suppose that the tester can
check HC and LS devices, so it has something to do with speed? Or
what is the reason that SN74xx devices can not be tested with most
IC testers that are available at eBay.
Many greetings from Germany

Philipp,
?
What is the clock doing/not doing.? I went
looking for our manuals and it seems they did not survive the
purge.
?
One thing to do as a preventative measure
is to look at the row of chips next to the NIXIE tubes.? In
between them (I think I¡¯ve got the position right) are
resistors.? These are the current limit resistors for the
NIXIEs and they get hot enough to burn the board.? We always
replace them, installing about a 0.25 in above the PCA.?
?
The circuit for this part is very similar
to the display section of the 5327B.?
?
We built a replacement clock that actually
remembers who it is when the power is cycled so all of the old
stuff got packed.
?
I¡¯ll talk to my partner but I can¡¯t find
the spare boards of manuals we used to have
?
Steve

Hello,
maybe anybody has a service Manual f¨¹r the K21-5321B Digital
Clock.
My clock dosent work the right way. I already tryed swaping
ICs but i think that more than one is faulty...

HP8510C Firmware C.07.00+
Hi,
I recently bought a 11575J Firmware upgrade kit, the 85101-80114 security key works fine, not so much the Firmware Floppy Disc (81501-80116). There is a disc error and the PG_8510C File is corrupted.
Could somebody be so nice and send me a copy of the content of this disc?
with very kind regards,
Gerhard.

Re: HP8562A Errors 304,335,317,333
I've opened up the case, and even if I
don't touch the electrolytics, I'm going to have to replace the
"delayed action smoke grenade" Rifa capacitors, before they
detonate.
That will give me some idea of how difficult it would be to
replace the electrolytics.

Hello Tom those are switchmode related. I think you would
benefit from recapping it. But as I said be carefull I one time
lost connection to a middle layer and had bigger spurious. Had
to trace it down. There are not many caps a few of the 180uF
3legged those can be changed to 220uF 40-50V 105 degree type.
There are a few 1000uF and a 4700uF for 5V supply. You can also
try to shunt the mounted ones to find the source of the problem.
In your case I would chase it as it is rather bad.
best regards Peter
Thanks for a very fast
response. The pictures are
with spurs at +-31.8kHz (-70dBc) and harmonics such as
+-63.7kHz (-72dBc).
I can't remember whether those are from the cal out or a
separate OCXO I "repurposed" from a scrapped MDA. In any
case the results are similar, and occur at other
frequencies.
Given that it is a 1989 machine with 630 hours, raised ESR
is a good bet.
While I have recapped PSUs before, I don't like doing it
where there are ground planes.

CRT Monitor module from HP8953E Available...
Gang,
I recently replaced a video monitor module in a HP8953E.? The original module had a small burnt section on one of the boards.? The CRT was producing bright and clear images before the module quit, but does have a slight burn, but should not be a problem.? I suspect the high voltage transformer is defective.
The module is marked:
Omni Vision, Inc P0615E3Y 970513 266
I believe this module is used in several different products. I would be happy to give this to a good home for only shipping cost or free pickup in the Los Angeles area.

PROBLEM SOLVED !
After the memory card was unplugged from the CPU card which has retention the
battery and then plugged again the problem disappeared.
Conclusion the ERASE ALL of the analyzer doesn't clear properly the internal
memory, the only way to do a real clear is to disassemble the memory card from
the CPU board of the 70900B.
I presume also for the A version.

I've used the shunt technique in the past, and I definitely won't
admit to leaving a shunt in permanently.
I'm not sure what to look at next. The 8562 or a Datron DC

voltage can be +-1kV :)

Re: Problem with HP MMS 70000, USERLOCK ON
1) Yes, it was running during many years !
2) Too bad ...
3) I'll re-install the CPU+Mem? boards and as I unplugged the
Memory board from the CPU where the battery is located I'm sure
the old programs are gone.
4) Not necessary it worked for years, this isn't a compatibility
of the DLP with the last OSA firmware.
If really needed I could reinstall the old PROMS as I installed
PLCC sockets several years ago with the new firmware.
I would like to avoid to do this because time consuming.
5) As I discovered this problem with the already loaded DLP since
years and then with a fresh load (this morning) from the original
personality I'm pretty sure than the DLP isn't faulty.
For the moment I would suspect a faulty RAM, will continue to
investigate.

1. Are you sure the program did run once or is it the first
time you try to run this DLP into this 70900B CPU (coming from
an OSA) ?
2. There is no way to test the internal memory
3. Try to erase all the progs in memory : do not use "erase" but
"purge" with every name in the DLP catalog (read text under
PERASE, PURGE and ERASE commands in the prog manual)
4. Compatibility of this DLP with the OSA 70900 board ??? Try
another "normal" board

not done this since many yearswhen I upgraded

At that time I uploaded this latest firmware on
KO4BB web site.
So I tested the battery and found 3.074v for a
3v battery, so my problem isn'tthis.
The battery model not replaced by me is a
Panasonic BR-2/3A .
So the problem seems to be more complex than
expected, may be a faulty memory??
Question: Is there somewhere a memory test that
could be run to test thememories of the 70900B
memory CPU card?
Any suggestion to the person having experience
with the 70900B logic ?
The problem is just when I load an HP DLP
(70875A) within the analyzer I gotthis problem,
otherwise in spectrum analyzer mode the MMS is
working fine.
