I actually looked for an app that can replace the oscilloscope but I couldn't find one. Thanks for the sharing.:)

Re: TS1000 TV connection problem (might be ULA issue)

Mark Wow Mark you just wrote a small book for beginners.:D That really helped me to understand about the socketed chips and the oscilloscope a lot. Thanks so much.:) Yes I finally pulled out the ULA and sadly it's the ULA's problem. The not working one works fine with the ULA from the working one. ...

Re: TS1000 TV connection problem (might be ULA issue)

Hi ts1000user, Do you have an oscilloscope? If so, you can check an ULA's back porch "wave" with a probe into a video output jack or on a "middle" wire before a video modulator or on a D9's anode. 10us 2v AC TVH Hopefully, this will help you out, Dessony Thanks for the useful advice dessony.:) I'm ...

Re: TS1000 TV connection problem (might be ULA issue)

Assuming that they are both USA models (as that was the market for TS1000 machines), they both should have the same type of modulator. The switch that MaFli mentioned is simply the channel change switch (the USA modulars can transmit on one of two frequencies/channels). Are the ULA chips on both bo...

Re: TS1000 TV connection problem (might be ULA issue)

Hi ts1000user, Welcome to the forum! And nothing wrong with your English. I'm sure someone can help you out. Many clever folks here :-) But I had a quick look at the modulator on your TS1000. It is marked UM1082LA2/3. I recently bought a ZX80 with a similar modulator and that one was intended for t...

TS1000 TV connection problem (might be ULA issue)

Hi forum users. I've bought a TS1000 from the Ebay a month ago and I immediately found out that the TS1000 is not properly working. First the keyboard cable was all broken so I've ordered a new keyboard for zx81 from sellmyretro and I got the package this night. (Took less than 2 weeks. Amazing.) Th...
