Fwd: Fluke 9010A Display problem

Thanks John,

After a close inspection, I realise that the display test was showing
the number 8 on all segments.

According to service manual the ICs 12 and 14 are responsible to drive
the "internal part" of each segment, and the ICs 11 and 13 the
"external part".

A number 8 uses only "external" filaments and athe letter K, for
instance, uses some "internal" ones.

Put my scope on IC 14 and no action on output pins...

Today i'll try to buy one mc14094bcp on some local store, and see what
happens...

Thank you guys!

JL

If so, and the segments all light up as they should then you may have a ROM issue where some of the ASCII code text in the text tables is defective. That is just a guess, you can check against the code on the ftp site to make sure the base ROMs are all good.
