The slight delay after power-on before giving the error indication suggested
a memory test to me...

Of course it might not be 2114 problems, but I have replaced so many of those
ICs over the years in all sorts of devices that I suspect them on sight now :-)

2114s are normally used in pairs,, of course. They are 1K*4 RAMs, so it takes 2 
to make a byte. I hope some kind person hasn't 'borrowed' a couple of RAMs
from the plotter, that would be nasty.
