I have the diagrams for a 2-segment +1 LED MHz display and I tried to follow but the result is way off. I had no trouble setting up my 2+1 segment MHz displays with this jumper sheet, but this display from my 386 case is giving me trouble. It is normally set for 20/40 MHz, but I want to set it to 33/66 MHz. Does anyone have the jumper sheet for this particular MHz display? There are three transistors on the PCB.
At power on, the LED display has the smarts to know the system is not in Turbo mode yet, even if you have the Turbo button pressed. So at boot up, it will display the lower MHz value, regardless of whether Turbo is pressed. And Turbo light remains off. Once the system has passed POST, the the turbo light should go on and change the MHz display to whatever Turbo value you set. So the turbo switch actually goes to the motherboard and there is a single wire that comes from the motherboard which enacts this sort of over-ride of turbo, that is, until the system has POSTed. My other MHz displays don't work like this and are more simple. The 386 display is unique in this sense and I was wondering if 33/66 is even possible with this MHz PCB. I can get the LED to display 66 MHz at turbo using random jumper swaps, but de-turbo remains garbled.
Anyone with a proper jumper sheet? Would be much appreciated.
