Howdy,
I've been having a good rescue year... earlier this year a PERQ, and now 2
Sun 1/100's (and yes, one is a 100, not a 100U).
(details of the rescues are getting written up for my blog at
http://www.vintagecomputerexpo.com... the first PERQ post is up already...)
With the Sun 1's I also got two tape/disk drive units... the first one
actually BOOTED the first Sun 1... first try (ok, 2nd try, after I
unparked the heads). The second actually does the initial boot but has
some hard read errors (so I'll have to give it a go with a
reformat to see if that resolves things...)
But the question I have is that the 2nd Sun 1 integrated monitor need to
have the vertical/horizontal hold adjusted. It currently
looks like someone tweaked the V-Hold and H-Hold dials that use to be at
least on my TV's :-)
On the outside there is only a brightness knob... so I'm going to have to
open it... but I've not been able to find any details on
what to look for... I'm assuming some potentiometers some place... does
anyone know?
Thanks.
Earl
