I guess I need to do some board level repair.
I inherited a DEC Rainbow 100+. IOn boot, it comes up with the Keyboard Error
"See Owner's Manual - MESSAGE 13 - Keyboard"
So, here's what I have done.
* I've changed out the Keyboard using a spare I LK201 I had - no change
* I've tried the known working LK201 GoldKey keyboard that works on my VT220
* I've changed out the monochrome monitor.
Note Changed:
* The BCC02 cable.
So at this point, I'm thinking that either of the 2 chips used to create the RS422 interface to the keyboard are blown. Am I on the right track?
