Re: Tempest Tech??

You can also hook the board up to an oscilliscope if it has an XY mode.
This is how I test all my vectorboards from home.

Of course, this brings up another question I have. I hope I'm not asking
too many questions. How does one hook up the Z or blanking circuit to the
oscilliscope? I know with black and white vector games there's a Z
hookup, but I can't see any for the color vector games but I do see X and
Y Inverts. Could someone explain this to me?
