TE is Tape Enable. It should be +5v when not active. If you turn Tape Enable
on, it should go to near 0v.

Hi Andy
I did a continuity-check between P10 on the KLM 367 board and the relatives
points on the KLM 371

Then I did check P10 pins on KLM 367 with an oscilloscope (with KLM 371 not
connected) and I found this values:

pin1: D3 +/- 5V
pin2: D2 +/- 5V
pin3: D1 +/- 5V
pin4: D0 +/- 5V
pin5: P13 0V
pin6: P12 0V
pin7: P11 0V
pin8: P10 0V
pin9: D4 +/- 5V
pin10: D5 +/- 5V
pin11: D6 +/- 5V
pin12: D7 +/- 5V
pin13: P26 0V
pin14: P27 0V
pin15: +5V
pin16: GND
pin17: TE +5V (what does TE means?)

Are this values regular?

cheers

Aniello
