HI LO Systems EPP-01A EPROM programmer and some stuff...
« on: June 21, 2014, 10:18:45 AM »
Got this from work. This was used for old fire alarm systems that still required PROMS or EPROMS. All more recent systems use EEPROM flas memories and we have phased out most of those older systems.

I've used it for some games IDing before and it worked great, the biggest drawback is that it needs a PC with ISA slots. I also got the PC with the matching ISA card here now, windows 95 :)

Not sure if I'm going to use this, the PC is very bulky compared to the Toshiba laptop and Needham programmer I now use.

I do surely keep the UV EPROM eraser though as it is much nicer than the cheap Chinese one I have now. Better built, more sturdy, electronic timer and it has a CE approval (uses an external wall-adapter).

Also got a box full of PROMS and EPROMS. I'm not sure about sizes and if the PROMS are still empty. Removing the labels is a PITA, those are not nice labels ;)

OK removed all the labels. Got 13x 27C10 EPROMS and 9x 27C512 EPROMs here and those are way too big for my purposes.

These are nice for newer games (about from the mid 80s I think).

Wanting to sell these or trade for smaller EPROMs (2716,2732,2764 etc).

Unerased/untested 2 euro a piece. Erased and tested 3 Euro a piece.
