testing</title></head><body>
<div>For testing suspect 2114's I simply use the READ/WRITE functions
of the 9010 - Write "AA" to the 1st RAM address, then Read
it back. If you get "AA" then the RAM is apparently good at
that point, but if you get "AX" then you know the low RAM is
bad (D0 - D3) and if you get "XA" then the upper RAM is bad.
Double check with "55" - same results.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Of course if you read the manuals you will find that the RAM test
gives you more information on how to interpret the failure results,
but I find this test very quick.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you have the Probe, then sync it to Address and you can then
check that the R/W lines are working correctly to see if the RAM is
being addressed at all. The probe is a very handy addition to the 9010
that is often overlooked. It's ability to sync to the Address or Data
makes it indispensable in fast troubleshooting!</div>
