Voltage issues on a Tempest Cabaret!
So I got the wiring sorted out on my tempest cabaret and tested it last night a fried an ARII. The ARII was rebuilt and I had working prior its offering to the magic smoke gods. I ended up pulling the brick and building a quick little bench cable to fake the switch/interconnects and my meter was getting all kinds of wacky voltages, even with the power off. I'm going to invest in a new meter (I think mine is toast) and I have a printout of Dokert's Atari brick voltage post but I was wondering if the voltages are different for vectors. There was mention that all vector bricks pinouts are different and I was wondering what the difference.
Thanks,
