Can anyone tell me which parameters are > used to adjust the gary scale ? I don't have any literature on this set. > > Any help appreciated, > LLW > > ************************************************* > Replaced EEprom. Used the EEprom from kit # 212120, because EEprom # 229780 > is NOT available by its self. Copied parameters on a sheet of paper, > installed an 8-pin IC socket, entered the parameters onto the new EEprom. > Did NOT need "chipper checker".
