Ancient Numericon 850 Micron 850 anyone
I have a cnc lathe equipped with an ancient Numericon 850 control which I am resurrecting. Long term my goal is to put MACH3 on it, but initially I want to get the 850 running so that I can poke arround the existing set up to see what I have.
It was tripping my main RCD (neutral - earth leak) which I traced to supression caps on a power supply (now replaced) and it started up and was ok for 30 mins, but developed a fault with '@' signs everywhere, now we just have random characters on the screen and no response to keys. There was a fair amount of dust build up on the cards, which I've now cleaned but to no avail.
Ideally I'm after an 850 for spares, and or any circuit diagrams of the 8085 based control
