Switch matrix column test at 2J2 with Leon's code

Steps

  • Tester LED plain lead to +5 V.
  • Touch each pin of driver connector 2J2; the LED should blink in time with the CPU LEDs.
  • A pin missing the signal with good IC11 outputs means a failed 7406 at IC17 or IC18.
  • Compare the 7406 inputs (pins 1, 5, 9, 13) with outputs (pins 2, 6, 8, 12): input blinking but output not means that chip is bad.
