Help on a Computer Automation system

I received this email this week. Possibly someone with CA experience can help him (Lars, are you there?). Please contact him directly. Bob ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ You have a picture of a CA Naked mini on your site, so I thought that perhaps you might be able to help me.... I'm a volunteer at the Oakland Air Museum. We have an old flight simulator from the Alameda Naval Airstation. It uses a couple CA Naked minis, as well as misc other embedded processors. I've been slowly trying to breath life back into the system, starting with the computer proper with all peripherals disconnected. We have quite an extensive collection of documentation for the system since it was a military training device. Everything seems to power up, and I can read and write data to memory using the front panel, but I can't get it to boot. All evidence indicates that both the floppy and removable hard drive are not working, and even the CRT terminal may not be fully working (ie even if it did boot I might not even know it). Unfortunately I got rid of my last 8" floppy drive and data terminal many many years ago. Any suggestions on how to go about resuscitating one of these? Also, any suggestions on where to start looking for basic repair stuff, such as a card extender? Any help or pointers would be appreciated. --jon jonb at jmbaai.com
