Hello everyone.
I was recently given a 4032 that was working when it went into storage but isn't now and I'm trying to get it going.
It powers up with a very bingly-beep sound and produces a raster on the screen but no more than that. I've checked the 5v line and that's fine. The phi2 clock has a sawtooth wave on it. Not sure if that's good but it's something. Other pins on the 6502 are moving about. I watched A0 and A1 and they are twinkling as they should.
Looking on the video connector shows nothing but what is apparently a sync signal. Looking at the Technical manual it is the “Hor Drive” and it's at 500ns.
There is no signal on the Vert drive.
I'm a software guy by trade and not intuitive with hardware. I have a 'scope and general knowledge of how to use it but don't know what to check.
Please can someone tell me what to check next?
Thank very much.
Andy.
