I have one that i would like to get working but
have not been able to find much real helpfull
info on it.
These are based on a Computer Pheripherals inc.
tape drive. At least that is whats on the sticker.
It turns on and when you push "logic on" it goes
into self test and just stays there with out any
codes displayed. Display just stays at "00"
voltages look close. DEC manual says system main
board or voltages off. I guess they just had a
stack of spare boards to test with.
As far as I recall, the TU80 is a rebadged CDC Keystone air-
bearing drive, model 92181. There are service manuals for that drive
on Bitsavers. Look here:
