Hello to all.
I have another computer to restoring, the DEC Rainbow 100. This computer is powered off many yer ago, i dont' know if it stored in working condition or not, but now is not relevant.
The original monitor have a very strange problem, i have found other photo on google with same issue, the front have a bubbles on all surface, i don't know if secure to turn on int, but internally is very clean and apparently with not blowned components, really clean and really with very little black powder deposited as in the usual CRTs.
Now, i have a similar tube, but i don't find any documentation of this original tube, i need to try replacement of only tube and with installing the original deflection yoke on my tube. I have noted a perticulary on original tube, the high voltage headset of the eat is on the bottom of the monitor, unlike others where I find it in the upper part or at most lateral left or right.
Now i think so probably the deflection yoke are inverted too, and if i try to replace tube i have to asemble the original yoke on the new tube with correct way.
Can anyone have a full complete schematic for this computer and our monitor?
Then, what do you recommend to proceed for the restoration of this computer? disassemble it into pieces, clean it and which checks to do first?
Thanks
Emanuel
