We all suspected <span class="st">Alzheimer's disease but it was decided it cannot be transmitted from the workers to the machine.</span><br />
<span class="st"><br /></span>
<span class="st">Bill Newman was looking into the circuitry of the IBM 1406 expanded memory and found a disconnect.</span><br />
<span class="st">When re-connected, all 16,000 locations of memory came back to life.</span><br />
<span class="st">Now if it was that easy for our memory.</span><br />
<span class="st"><br /></span>
<span class="st">Filled with success, Bill tryed to find out why the A register on the same machine would not latch.</span><br />

Frank King and Ron Williams lifted p a corner of the Connecticut 1401 in order to feed in the connection to first IBM 729 tape drive.<br />
<br />
The first tape drive of the German system did not respond to a rewind command from the 1401.<br />
We have had this problem with this drive on and off for the last year.<br />
Maybe this is the time we can find it and fix it.<br />
<br />
The first tape drive of the Connecticut machine appears to work OK.<br />

<br />
Our team came in Saturday and connected the equipment together.<br />
The Connecticut machine came up with only having to reverse two legs of the three phase power.<br />
This is normal as the electricians have no way of knowing the rotational phase of the three phase power.<br />
When we see one of our three phase motors going backwards, we fix the problem at the power connection.<br />
<br />
While the 60/50 power converter came up and appeared to be OK, the German 1401 was not happy. <br />
It would not start.<br />
<br />
A number of techies all figured that the connection between the German machine and the 60/50 cycle converter was the possible problem.<br />
There was only one thing to do; Call in Ron Crane who is the expert.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

After Ron fixed the wiring to the output of the 60/50 cycle power converter, the German responded to the power on button.<br />

<br />
At some point, the system was removed.<br />
<br />
However some of the under-the-floor plumbing was left behind.<br />
<br />
With the current addition to under-the-floor fire sprinklers, the two under-the-floor plumbing systems were close to each other making the placement of the IBM 1401 cables difficult.<br />
<br />
Frank King, Dave Lion and Stan Paddock went into the depths and removed the HALON plumbing and the brackets that supported that plumbing<br />

On Monday, October 21, the movers and Dave Lion will be returning to move the German 1401 system back into the 1401 room.<br />
<br />
On Wednesday, October 23, the 1401 team will move all equipment in the 1401 room to the final display locations.<br />
<br />
Add power and a bunch of cables, we will be ready to go!<br />
<br />
(Sounds Simple doesn't it?) <br />

The building came complete with an electrical system that could provide backup power to the servers SGI had in what is now the 1401 room.<br />
<br />
Withe the remodel, all of the controls of the backup power were removed and stored on the loading dock.<br />
<br />
A buyer was found to buy the control equipment and the 7,000 pound diesel generator located in the back parking lot.<br />
<br />

created a symphony dedicated to the 1401 called "IBM 1401: A User's Manual."

played by humans.</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">Jóhann
is now collaborating with the renowned American film-maker Bill Morrison to
create a musical and visual homage to the vintage 1401, featuring an expanded
version of his symphony.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">Here is a compelling five-minute

</span><a href="http://www.ausersmanual.org/" style="font-size: 15px;">http://www.ausersmanual.org/</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: small;">The
1401 symphony's four movements are labeled "1401, 1403, 1402, and 729". In a
2007 interview on NPR's The World, Johann described the piece as a homage to
his father, Jóhann Gunnarsson, IBM's CE for the 1401 and Iceland's first
computer. At the 1401's decommissioning farewell ceremony in 1971, he had
recorded some popular Icelandic symphonic music via the 1401 AM radio program
(which we having runing on our 1401s), five notes of which Johann used in his
composition, along with the recorded voice from an old instructional maintenance
tape for an IBM 421 Tabulator. In the NPR interview, Johann expresses his
feelings about the 1401 symphony: "<i> It's about this nostalgia for old
machines, this a sort of tecno-nostolgia in a way,</i> <i>and also a kind of
respect for the ancient. If a piece of technology has become redundant, it
doesn't necessarily loose its worth."</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px;"> </span><br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The following account starts at 12:30, the time I showed up. At that time, it
appears the group had already decided on how to connect to the memory drawer
(pins left over from the typewriter project), and were getting some wiring on
those connections. Most connections are using the pins, but we did have to
solder to one of the large ground stakes on the rear connector. (Bob, Ron W,
Glen, Dave, Stan)<br /><br />We got the memory drawer working with Robert's power
supply. That supply claims to have a bias supply that goes to -100V, but it
really goes to -250V, which is just what we needed. With what appears to be
three 807 output tubes it regulates just fine! The pins on our connections to
the filament lines had to be tightened up to get the voltage drop out, and
things started to work. Robert's supply worked great all afternoon. (Bob, Ron
W., Glen, Dave, Bill)<br /><br />We found the gain through the unit is about 20000
and it picks up the LO of an AM radio just fine. Using the radio we were able
to induce a 5mV PP signal on the input lead, which caused a 100V PP signal at
the output of the video amplifier. We'll see if we can get down to 10uV with
the shields on later. (Bob, Ron W, Ron C, Dave, Bill)<br /><br />We were all amazed
that the video amp can do a broadband gain (well for the day it was broadband,
100kHz to 1.2mHz) of 20k without oscillating, especially with the covers off.
With no AM radio near by (within 2" of the pickup wire), the amplifier picks up
KGO (K G(eneral Electric) O(akland), 810kHz, 50kW, by Dumbarton Bridge) just
fine. The amplifier pickup wire probably has about 2 mV of KGO on it (why we
need the shields). (Bob, Ron W, Ron C, Dave, Bill)<br /><br />We lost one of the
drawer electrolytics (Dave yelling "smoke!" was extremely helpful...) for which
I just happened to have a replacement. The replacement was installed and we
were back in business. The clipper seems to work (tube 6 - a 6AS5, which we
could swear is not the right tube). Loss of only one electrolytic on a 60 year
old piece of electronics seems pretty good, although we really don't know if any
of the remaining electrolytics do any filtering! (Bob, Ron W., Dave,
Bill)<br /><br />We added another tube to the chain, (tube 7, a 6AU6) which does
something, but we are not sure if it is the right thing yet. (Bob, Ron W.,
Bill)<br /></td></tr>

Steve Wozniak was teaching a senior student how to ride a Segway!<br />
<br />
Robert asked Steve's wife Janet if it would be possible for Steve to stop into the 1401 restoration room for a short visit. In spite of a tight schedule, they stopped in after lunch.<br />

<br />
After showing the various elements of the IBM 1401, Steve put his wife to work.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I am sure Janet had never seen a keypunch before. She punched up name cards for both herself and Steve.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The cards were run through PigPrint and Steve and Janet both received a printed document certifying that they visited the CHM on that date.<br />
<br />

Both Steve and Janet took interest in just how the IBM 1403 printer can print so fast and make so much noise. Stan Paddock was more than willing to show them.<br />

<span class="name"> </span><br />
<span class="name">There was a young man (David) and his girl friend (Julie) who would like to visit the museum. The problem is he is blind.</span><br />
<span class="name">Since the 1401 restoration room is the only place in the museum that has equipment that can be 'touched', Jim asked if he could schedule the vist for Saturday, January 14th which is one of our work days.</span><br />
<span class="name"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="name">We told Jim that was no problem and bring David in.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="name">The Wednesday before that date, we were working on the German 1401. It had several card failures.</span><br />
<span class="name">Late in the day, the Connecticut machine decided to fail.</span><br />
<span class="name"> </span><br />
<span class="name">On Friday, I convinced Jim Hunt to join me at the CHM to try and get one of the machines up and running for Saturday.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQQ-t8tJTMXW24uOhymN4vutpF_DPuNPi1GmtiwysAeDqkGFkaKsAMfqmq17YLpiIl4ViZ7hXM_OIh-M-09zzkLiCk3Tjd8YMeI0F5hJyHj2cd8A7E8HDlChmKswuwEX4JMjL_Xu2Wy4tB/s1600/ComputerHistMuseum-32.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQQ-t8tJTMXW24uOhymN4vutpF_DPuNPi1GmtiwysAeDqkGFkaKsAMfqmq17YLpiIl4ViZ7hXM_OIh-M-09zzkLiCk3Tjd8YMeI0F5hJyHj2cd8A7E8HDlChmKswuwEX4JMjL_Xu2Wy4tB/s320/ComputerHistMuseum-32.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>This picture shows Glen, his younger brother and his father. His mother is busy taking pictures.<br />
<br />
Glen was very interested in the IBM 1401 equipment. He showed me the programming he had done on his cell phone!<br />
<br />
I had some work to do at the CHM and invited Glen to com back on Friday and I would teach him how to program the 1401. He and his mother accepted.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxkZOo8C37T4KBq0rLSEKSQmq0DId4V4R1wQHxayPX1OQ5K3-vciVpTpOk4lEnx_Pq2LIoQWuVfUsWOf68JPVdZnZeTaNjidRz5OsPBsWUusWBVHxlJsF-LLxu4xjw6Zydm5dGek7OgTgs/s1600/12-30-11_1237.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxkZOo8C37T4KBq0rLSEKSQmq0DId4V4R1wQHxayPX1OQ5K3-vciVpTpOk4lEnx_Pq2LIoQWuVfUsWOf68JPVdZnZeTaNjidRz5OsPBsWUusWBVHxlJsF-LLxu4xjw6Zydm5dGek7OgTgs/s320/12-30-11_1237.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>After a whiteboard session upstairs, Glen wrote a "Hello World" program on the IBM PC in the foyer.<br />
He and his mother are shown above.<br />
<br />
Glen then ran the program through the IBM 1401 simulator on the IBM PC.<br />
The Glen ran "remote punch" to punch his object deck on one of the IBM 026 keypunches.<br />
After he was shown how to load a program into the IBM 1402 card reader, he did so and the program ran as expected.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3G92p2Ng-zyj1GFxuA9H_pLVJppDK-5o6UqYtsCLajvc60hoGxnbF8GbMvwhj4jpAlyY5Zv1B9tKzNcXIlLEAV0jocufGnvuLVi4iezz-QnnrKgRCrNuUocwHx8C9iPnkmS8vHHLCs_qQ/s1600/ComputerHistMuseum-35.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3G92p2Ng-zyj1GFxuA9H_pLVJppDK-5o6UqYtsCLajvc60hoGxnbF8GbMvwhj4jpAlyY5Zv1B9tKzNcXIlLEAV0jocufGnvuLVi4iezz-QnnrKgRCrNuUocwHx8C9iPnkmS8vHHLCs_qQ/s320/ComputerHistMuseum-35.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
Glen was so excited with his success, he decided to write a program that read cards and put the data to the printer with a header for each line. There was an "(EOF)" card at the end he had to detect to stop the program. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrrUz5ack3kv9thxxarRwKvDPuli0WjA_6iRgSInRG0YzN8jyXtoVSyZLavt0Yok0-cuHkiPwcLou40uYEqsCoaiHrNJs199JTXaiIHEW-OGF26egwmxPih09R2qknti3mV0Y1WjI-1Uj_/s1600/ComputerHistMuseum-33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrrUz5ack3kv9thxxarRwKvDPuli0WjA_6iRgSInRG0YzN8jyXtoVSyZLavt0Yok0-cuHkiPwcLou40uYEqsCoaiHrNJs199JTXaiIHEW-OGF26egwmxPih09R2qknti3mV0Y1WjI-1Uj_/s320/ComputerHistMuseum-33.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>This program also worked as designed.<br />
Glen was fascinated that the IBM 1401 system has four "START" buttons so when he demoed his program, he used all of them.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiOrCgU4kuLNd3rvGLluLeaMjct9zE_jpGq8wouYQMIJcZl4UaH-OOLtlZW1ylKSljAF2UeRE_zYpP2eEGObSLLn5UdBU5fssuEScQV1_kVrPF-q9wazzDm4QLyvrww50IWToTcqOjLJn3/s1600/ComputerHistMuseum-31.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiOrCgU4kuLNd3rvGLluLeaMjct9zE_jpGq8wouYQMIJcZl4UaH-OOLtlZW1ylKSljAF2UeRE_zYpP2eEGObSLLn5UdBU5fssuEScQV1_kVrPF-q9wazzDm4QLyvrww50IWToTcqOjLJn3/s320/ComputerHistMuseum-31.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
I received the following E-Mail from Glen after he returned home.<br />
I think I may have found a JAVA programmer to fix the problem with our ROPE programming environment!<br />
<br />
Dear Stan,<br />
Thank you for teaching me how to program the IBM 1401 (Ancient) Computer. I enjoyed it very much. <b>The <u>Computer History Museum</u> was, by far, the best museum I have ever been to.</b> Thank you for inviting me back to program the IBM 1401. I will definitely like simulating, and programming for, the IBM 1401 at home. I will also like fixing that bug in the simulator, and, maybe adding a new feature, punching directly from the simulator program (so I can click "Punch" on the assembled code screen, and it will punch for me)! Speaking of which, I <b>loved</b> the remote punch feature! Thank you for inviting me.<br />
<br />
