LETTER 6
Tony Boarer

Dear Gus,
I have a couple of problems that some members may be able to
proffer some advice. First, I am having an intermittent
problem with various keys (not always the same ones)
registering more than once - e.g. ttt istead of just t. This
also happens the function + key - e.g. MODEMODE istead of
MODE. The problem is worse in some modes than others. At the
moment I cannot produce this problem! But it is particularly
annoying when it occurs whilst using the word processor when
one may have go through the text to edit out the surplus
letters.
The second problem concerns the PEGASUS 400 disk drive
interface - for that is where I assume the cause resides.
This problem is why I mentioned in a previous letter that I
sometimes swapped the interface between the front and rear
ROMBOX+ slots. However, this only proved a temporary solution
for it occurs from both positions. The problem is that
sometimes when I SAVE (never yet on a LOAD command) a program
(or DATA) to disk I get either of the disk fault messages
"Disk fault 8 (or 10) on Drv 00 (or 1,2 and 3 as appropriate)
at Trk??, Sct??". A disk fault 10 almost always needs the
disk to be re-formatted. A disk fault 8 at Trk 00 almost
always needs the disk to be re-formatted, but at higher track
numbers the disk can nearly always be recovered after power
down and starting again. By a process of trial and error the
fault seems to be with the contact of the interface fingers in
the ROMBOX+ slots - the interface is not such a firm fit in
the slot as a ROM cartridge by the nature of the SLOGGER
design. At pesent I have the interface in the rear slot and
held either side by rubber wedges which has markedly reduced
the problem but not eliminated it.
Any thoughts on permanent solutions? I now have sufficient
back-up disksto recover any lost data but it is time I could
use to better effect!
Now one specifically for Gus, please. With EUG 15 disk 2 I
cannot get the Foxcub picture. What happens is that the
screen loads from the top with a pattern of vertical lines
until about 80% down and then produces what I presumee is the
picture for bottom 20%. Some sort of corruption I imagine but
beyond me to rectify. The Indian is fine. I have just had to
edit out some duplicated letters!
THE PROBLEM WITH YOUR KEYS SOUNDS LIKE THE 'DE-BOUNCE' CIRCUIT
IN YOUR KEYBOARD IS FAULTY. THIS CIRCUIT IS NECESSARY IN A
COMPUTER BECAUSE ONE KEY-PRESS TO US MORTALS MAY BE MANY TO A
COMPUTER. I MAY BE WRONG. IF IT IS THIS THEN YOU MIGHT TRY
CHANGING THE ICs ON THE KEY-BOARD, I THINK THERE ARE THREE
THOUGH IT IS SOME TIME SINCE I LOOKED. DON'T WORRY WHICH ONES,
JUST TAKE A NOTE OF THE NUMBERS OF ALL AND BUY REPLACEMENTS.
THEY ARE SO CHEEP NOW. IF THIS DOESN'T WORK OR IS PERHAPS TOO
DIFFICULT THEN A REPLACEMENT KEYBOARD MAY BE THE THING OR
PERHAPS A PROFESSIONAL REPAIR. I KNOW JAFA DO REPAIR WORK ON
THE ELECTRON AND MAYBE ALSO HAVE SPARE KEYBOARDS. I HAVE ALWAYS
BEEN SATISFIED WITH JAFA IN THE PAST.
I THINK SLOGGER ALSO DO REPAIRS BUT I CANNOT CONFIRM THIS AS
I AM STILL WAITING FOR SOME ADVERTISING FROM THEM SINCE FIRST
ASKING LAST JULY! JAFA CAN BE REACHED ON 0222 887203. SAY
HELLO FROM ME.
YOUR PROBLEM WITH YOUR DISK DRIVE SOUNDS TRICKY. PERHAPS YOU
MIGHT ASK JAFA FOR AN ESTIMATE TO CHECK OUT YOUR WHOLE SYSTEM.
COULD BE WORTHWILE IN THE LONG RUN. SOMETIMES ONE PROBLEM WHICH
MIGHT BE RELATIVLY MINOR IN ITSELF CAN HAVE A CHAIN OF
CONSEQUENCES ELSEWHERE.
I KNOW THE PEGASUS SYSTEM WELL AND IT IS GOOD. DO LET US KNOW
HOW YOU GET ON. IF ANY MEMBER CAN THROUGH MORE LIGHT ON THESE
PROBLEMS THAN I CAN THEN DO CONTACT EITHER TONY DIRECT OR HERE.
EITHER WAY DON'T FORGET TO SHARE WHATEVER HAPPENS WITH THE REST
OF US.
AS FAR AS THE PICTURE IS CONCERNED I HAVE TO PASS THIS OVER TO
HEAD-FIRST PUBLIC DOMAIN WHO SUPPLIED THE PROGRAM.
I AM CURRENTLY HAVING A PROBLEM ON MY MAIN ELECTRON WHICH I
REALLY MUST CONTACT JAFA ABOUT WHERE CERTAIN PROGRAMS DON'T
BEHAVE AS EXPECTED THOUGH THEY WORK WELL ON OTHER MACHINES. I
SUSPECT THAT CERTAIN ADDRESSES ARE BEING CORUPTED ON MY
MACHINE BY A HARDWARE FAULT BUT THESE ARE ONLY BEING CALLED BY
CERTAIN PROGRAMS HENCE THE PROBLEM IS RARE.
