I had to replace a failed hard drive on our Meridian 1030. After replacement the script is not running on start-up for the Vx works connection to the VME. Any help with the proper boot sequence would be appreciated.

What medium is the exec stored on? Maybe your floppy has a bad sector, do you have a back up copy of the exec or maybe can get one?

Out of curiosity, I measured the vacuum levels on our Topaz. With a #31 nozzle the values read somewhere between 130 and 150 when open and about 200 when blocked. The component pickup works fine with no errors with these values

Are you sure there wasn't solder stuck up the nozzle. Which would make for a doggy pressure indication?

100% positive. First thing I did was check the nozzle, plus it was happening with all nozzles on head 1. It's definitely in the circuit somewhere.

Then look for a disconnected supply or earth to the head. A dodgy cap (high ESR) on the supply of the board. Put a CRO on the supply and check it's supply and earth to chassis and to each other and then compare the level to other boards in the machin
