I have not put the HPIL in yet. I have one and will put it in and test. First the FORTH, then the HPIL. Then I will do a SHOWPORT and see what shows up. I'm feeling good that the problem was just broken wires.

I don't have any way to input programs at present. No reader, or 9114. Got about a dozen prineters but that's no help

Unfortunately the 1BBBB and earlier version of SHOWPORT is crippled and won't show all the ports. To run the new version you'll need some HP-IL I/O or a card reader. If you plan on having more fun with your 71 I highly suggest the acquisition of a PIL-Box from J-F.

Otherwise, keying-in MEMBUF seems to be the only way to do a thorough analysis of your ports.
