Broken VT510

As noted, in another reply, the DEC VT-5xx terminal series was mfg. by ADDS. Boundless Technologies (former ADDS) shutdown sales a few years ago. They will service & supply parts, as long as inventory of proprietary parts exists. http://www.boundlessterminals.com/ Boundless Technologies 1916 State Route 96 Phelps, NY 14532 www.boundlessterminals.com Phone (toll-free): 1-800-231-5445 Phone: 1-315-548-6189 Fax: 1-315-548-5100 CONTACT PAGE: http://www.boundlessterminals.com/support.html We will continue to service and repair Boundless products at our Z-AXIS facility (Rochester, NY area) until spare parts are no longer available.

Unfortunately, when I plug it in and push the power switch, nothing happens. Rather than just open it up and poke, I was hoping others here might have some experience with that model. Are the schematics anywhere? Not on Bitsavers as far as I can see. Are other terminals at all similar? The newest schematic I see is for the VT340. It would be nice to get the terminal working again. Alternatively, a wild idea would be to use the CRT in place of the "screen fungus" infested VR201 CRT I would like to repair. Any chance of that working? paul
