[Techtoolslist] Some test rigs i picked up recently...

[andy at andysarcade.net]

Its for plugging into the game pcb itself and running tests in-circuit, so 
the voltage of the ram is irrelevant. If you were thinking the sockets on it 
were for ram you'd be wrong, they are for testing proms. Theoretically you 
could plug this into a missile command pcb and test the 4116 ram on it :)

Its a bit like a primitive cat-box, you can read/write addresses, but it 
doesn't use intuitive 7-segment displays (and its not a signature analyser), 
its all about the flashy LEDs.

Hey Andy,

Great haul. So, on the RAM/ROM tester, immediate first question that came to 
my mind, can it test the multiple-voltage RAM, like 4116's?

hi all..

Here are some interesting ancient test rigs i picked up recently :

http://www.andysarcade.net/pix/newtestrigs/

Atari RAM/ROM tester - Got from the USA with an original manual, untested so 
far, but it goes nicely with my CTF-1 :)

Atari PBS-1 - Comes with switch matrix unit and Light matrix/power supply 
unit, some crushed connectors, but should be a worker. Sorry John, i got no 
cards at all to go with this :| have you got any at all?

Atari Superman Pinball testrig - This looks like it might be a prototype, it 
is so well put together, who knows? It came from the main Atari distributer 
for Atari in the UK in the early 80's - MHG, so the provenance is good.

Kurz-Kasch - Signature II, very early signature analyser, nice neat little 
box. I actually have 4 of these, drop me a line if you're interested in one! 
(switchable line voltage 110/240)

Very surpisingly, everything but the ram/rom tester was obtained in the UK, 
and was used here in the UK 'back in the day'.

Gotta love all those twinkling lights.
