Jules,
My PERQ T2 does exactly the same thing. The dreaded
010.
Eventually if left for a while (10mins+) it goes to
013 which I think is drive time out.
Once I get chance I'm going to put a Logic analyser on
the
disk terminals to get a better idea what's happening.
I also tried a ST-506/412 drive with the same result.
Tony also mentioned that its possible to connect an
analyser
to the front of the CPU card to see where the CPU has
stepped to.
Cheers
Ian
This machine has a 5.25" ST-506/412 drive in it.
I
don't
think it's the one
with the dreaded sticking rubber problem; at any
rate I've
had it spinning up
on the bench - there seems to be a healthy clunk as
heads
unpark, and it
doesn't spin down, suggesting that side of things is
healthy.
Other question: at the point when it's doing
whatever checks
yield the 010
code, should the display have initialised and be
displaying
anything? I'm
getting nothing out of this system - but it's
entirely
possible that the
display init is further down the boot process, and
so it's
never getting that
far... (Anyone know which manual contains the
pinouts for the
video output and
landscape display?)
ta
Jules
