Teardown, cleaning and test of a Fluke Helios Plus 2287A Data Acquisition Frontend and 2181A Extender. The Frontend and extender features two Fluke 2280A-161 High Performance A/D Converter 2280A161 cards and nine 20-channel RTD/Resistance Scanner modules, for a total of 180 inputs in this setup with a Frontend and Extender. The main CPU is a Texas Instruments TMS9995, which essentially is a TI-990 Microcomputer on a single IC. Fluke 2280A-161 High Performance A/D Converter 2280A161 has its own smaller microcontroller to respond and time the measurements, in correspondence to the commands from the CPU module. The local controller is a Toshiba TMP80C39AP-6 which is a 8-bit controller running at 6 MHz with 27 I/O and 8 built-in timers. A Intersil HD3-6402 UART Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter is used for the communication through the mainframe backplane The 20-channel RTD/Resistance Scanner 2280A153 modules only has enough logic ICs to drive the 20 reed relays and communicate with the High Performance ADC 2280A161 card.
