My keyboard is missing its pull-out reference cards, so I plan to print some more. I just need a dimension to scale the images properly. Can someone here who has a set of cards get me the exact width at the longest point?

I have a Lisa with working Twiggy drives, and might be available to help with archiving Twiggy media.
General location: Boston, MA USA Number of working drives: 2 Experience archiving Twiggy Media: Lots, very experienced Have archiving setup at hand (BLU & serial connection to modern computer for file transfers): Yes |

If the timing logic looks to be working properly, then we're headed back to square 1 to investigate what is currently happening.
Suggestions: After you press reset, does /BERR do any cycling? If /BERR cycles:
If /BERR doesn't cycle, does /AS cycle perpetually? If /AS cycles:
edit for future cases: also check CLK at the 68K is about 5 MHz, as without a running clock, nothing is likely to work. |

Many thanks, everyone! I'm glad my hunch was correct, but, wow! who would have put the PSU in this configuration?? Kind regards.

I wonder what the extra jumper wire on the E6 line is for (in OP's picture). It would seem to be a jumper connecting to... itself? On the same trace?It is in a parking position. It used to be connected to E7 for 115V operation and now, after conversion to 230V, it is dangling. The left jumper was connected to E8 for 115V and has now been moved to E7. This puts both transformer windings in series for 230V operation. Before, for 115V, they were in parallel. |

Thanks for this detailed writeup! I took another look at things, and here's what I discovered.
First of all, for whatever reason, the screen seems to have changed somewhat since the last time I powered on this Lisa. Now the raster lines don't blink, and what I get is a rhythmic cascading of dots down the screen. I can share another video if that helps. The counters U1C, U6F, and U5E are both counting and output as expected. U4A-4 and U4A-5 are both active. U1D seems to be working; all outputs are active at ~2.5MHz (half a clock cycle) as you described. I checked the flip-flops at U3C, U2B, U3B, and U4B. None of the Q - /Q outputs seem to be stuck, and they work as I expect. |

Here is a photo of the 230 V configuration: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/11/Apple_Lisa_Teardown_%2816065582186%29.jpg
Both windings of the standby transformer must be in series, not parallel, and the input of the main regulator must be configured as a bridge rectifier and not as a voltage doubler. So yes, the lower jumper is the culprit. |
