I have been given the challenge to fix the above old monochrome
monitor, a Teleray model 7R made by Research inc, which is completely
dead. It consists of a tube, CRT drive circuit board, PSU board and a
big logic board (it displays only text, is not a 'picture' monitor). I
have been unable to find any service information for it , even using
web searches for the manufacturers.
It seems to have a PSU fault, again each board is long obsolete without
any info I can find on the web. Although I can do some fault finding,
the PSU is switched mode and relies on feedback from the other boards
to operate, and also needs to be loaded, so it's like finding the break
in a contionuous circle. Added to that fact is that I live in Saudi
Arabia and the monitor had been taken to a local repair shop so I can't
even guarantee the components are the correct ones without service
data. This monitor is part of a larger old test station and there are
no compatible newer monitors due to the age/programming of the rest of
the test station.
So if anyone knows of anywhere I could get such information, I would be
very grateful.
