Hi 0xfede,
Thanks a lot for sharing all that information.
I have a 3457a for a few months now and have read your post with huge interest.
My device has a sticker "03457-88810 D/C 8949 REV 2"
The controller board is labeled 03457-66511 Rev.B
I must say that i could not find a schematic for that version.
The one i found, is for Rev. A
I have an ancient PC (ISA slots, win98). The GPIB card running on it,
is one of the reasons i keep it.
You remembered me on old times. My 1st computer was an Apple II with Applesoft basic.
Peeks and Pokes were very common.
I have written a small routine and now i am very happy to have a dump of the 3457's memory.
My eprom is an exact copy of your uploaded one.
So, i only upload the CALRAM area, if anyone want to compare.
I have a question that maybe you or somebody else could answer:
The memory map goes up to 0xFFFF. But the 3457 accepts addresses only up to 0x7FFE.
Why that?
Thanks again
