I

DANGER: High voltage can be present at the CRT when
power is off.

The following DANGER notices are located in the applicable
procedures:
DANGER
All persons handling a CRT or who are near an exposed CRT
under vacuum must wear safety glasses and long-sleeved
garments.

ANGER

his pin (P1-6 on the analog card) has 600V on it.
ttempt should be made to measure this voltage.

No

DANGER
The 3277 Model 2 Display Station weighs about 90 pounds.
Two men should be used to move this unit. Separate the
upper chassis from the lower chassis before trying to move the
Model 2 display station alone. (See paragraph 5.3.2.8, steps
1-7, to separate the two chassis.)
DANGER
All power component removal and replacement procedures
must be performed with power turned off and with the power
cord removed from the wall or from the input jack at the
display station.

C E Safety Practices
All Customer Engineers are expected to take every safety precaution
possible and observe the following safety practices while maintaining
IBM equipment:
.
1. You should not work alone under hazardous conditions or around
equipment with dang~rous voltage. Always advise your manager if;
you MUST work alone.
2. Remove all power AC and DC when removing or assembling major
components, working in immediate area of power supplies,
performing mechanical inspection of power supplies and installing
changes in'machine circuitry.
3. Wall box power switch when turned off should be locked or tagged
in off position. "00 not Operate" tags, form 229-1266, affixed
when applicable. Pull power supply cord whenever possible.
4. When it is absolutely necessary to work on. equipment having
exposed operating mechanical parts 'or exposed live electrical
circuitry anywhere in the machine, the following precautions must
be followed:
a. Another person familiar with power off controls must be in
immediate vicinity.
b. Rings, wrist watches, chains, bracelets, metal cuff links, shall
not be worn.
c. Only insulated pliers and screwdrivers shall be used.
d. Keep one hand in pocket.
e. When using test instruments be certain controls are set
correctly and proper capacity, insulated probes are used.
f. Avoid contacting ground potential (metal floor strips,machine
frames, etc. - use SUitable rubber mats purchased locally if
necessary).
5. Safety Glasses must be worn when:
a. Using a hammer to drive pins, riveting, staking, etc.
b. Power hand drilling, reaming, grinding, etc.
c. Using spring hooks, attaching springs.
d. Soldering, wire cutting, removing steel bands.
e. Parts cleaning, using solvents,sprays,cl~ners, chemicals, etc.
f. All other conditions that may be hazardous to your eyeS.
REMEMBER, THEY ARE YOUR EYES.
6. Special safety instructions such as handling Cathode Ray Tubes and
extreme high voltages, must be followed as outlined in CEM's and
Safety Section of the Maintenance Manuals.
7. Do not use solvents, chemicals, greases or oils that have not been
approved by IBM.
8. Avoid using tools or test equipment that have not been approved
by IBM.
9. Replace worn or broken tools and test equipment.
10. The maximum load to be lifted is that which in the opinion of you
and management does not jeopardize your own health or well-being
or that of other employees.
11. An safety devices such as guards, shields, signs, ground wires, etc.
shall be restored after maintenance.
12. Each Customer Engineer is responsible to be certain that no action
on his part renders product unsafe or exposes hazardsto customer
personnel.
13. Place removed machine covers in a safe out-of-the-way placewhere
no one can trip over them.
14. All machine covers must be in place before machine is returned to
customer.

15. Always place CE tool kit away from walk areas where no one can
. trip over it H.e., under desk or table).
16. Avoid touching mechanical moving parts (i.e., when lubricating,
checking for play, etc.).
17. When using stroboscope - do not touch ANYTHING - it may be
mOving..
18. Avoid wearing loose clothing that may be caught in machinery.
Shirt sleeves must be left buttoned or rolled above the elbow.
19. Ties must be tucked in shirt or have a tie clasp (preferably
nonconductive) approximately 3 inches from end. Tie chains are
not recommended .
. 20. Before starting .equipment, make certain fellow CE's and customer
personnel are not in a hazardous position.
21; Maintain good housekeeping in area of machines while performing
and after completing maintenance.
Artificial Respiration
General Considerations
1. Start Immediately, Seconds Count
Do not move victim unless absolutely necessary to remove from
danger. Do not wait or look for help or stop to loosen clothing,
warm the victim or apply stimulants.
2. Check Mouth for Obstructions
Remove foreign objects - Pull tongue forward.
3. Loosen Clothing - Keep Warm
Take care of these items after victim is breathing by himself or when
help is available.
4. Remain in Position
After victim revives, be ready to resume respiration if necessary.
. 5. Can a Doctor
Have someone summon medical aid.
6. Don't Give Up
Continue without interruption until victim is breathing without help
or is certainly dead.
Rescue Breathing for Adults
Victim on His Back Immediately
1.Ctear throat of water, food, or foreign matter.
2. Tilt head back to open air passage.
3. Lift jaw upto keep tongue out of air passage.
4. Pinch nostrils to prevent air leakage when you blow.
5.Blow until you see chest rise.
S.Remove your lips and allow lungs to empty.
7. Listen for snoring and gurglings, signs of throat obstruction.
S. Repeat mouth to mouth breathings 10-20 times a minute.

2.2.2 Requesting RFT Patterns

2.2.2. 1 Loca/ Display Stations

R FT patterns can be reqLJested for 3277 Display Stations
that are. attached to 'alocal control unit (3272) or to a
remote control unit (3271 Modell or 2). Patterns can be
requested· from one .display station to be displayed on
ano:her. (RFT patterns cannot be usedfor 3277 Display
Stations attached to a 3274 Control Unit. Refer to
Appendix A for procedures for these 3277s.) To display
patterns, the controlling CPU must be operating under as
BTAM (Operating System Basic Telecommunications
Access Method) or DOS BTAM (Disc Operating System
Basic Telecommunications Access Method), and the
application program must be set up to accept test requests.
The system programmer can verify that the requirements to
request R FT patterns are met. The ··eight test patterns
(four EBCDIC and four ASCII) that can be requested by
R FTs and. their identification numbers are listed in
Diagram 2-10.

1. Position the cursor at the top left (character position 0)
of an unformatted screen. (One way to accomplish this
is to press the C LEAR key. and then press the RESET
key.)
2. From' the keyboard, enter the R FT request message in
the following format:

programmer can provide this information.)

2.2.3 Online Tests (OL Ts)
Online tests may be available, at the customer's OPtion, to
aid in maintaining 3277 Display Stations, Detailed descrip,
tions and instructions for using OL Ts are contained in the
diagnostic program binder that is shipped with each control
unit. Control unit ML TGs also contain this information.
Most OL T routines apply to control units. The following
three routines apply to display stations:
1. KEY - This routine handles manually generated interrupts from the keyboard, selector light-pen, and program
function keyboard. The results of the interrupts are
. presented on the display station screen, informinQ the
CE of the success or failure of the interrupt operation.
This routine also reads back data entered from the
keyboard to check lowercase character codes.
2. MAG - This routine tests the operator identification card
reader and identification cards.
3. PAT - This routine displays the test patterns described in
paragraph 2.2.1. The test patterns appear in sequence on
the CRT after they are initially called in. An explanatory
message containing instructions for running the test
pattern sequence precedes Test Pattern 1.

3.1

SYMPTOM INDEX USAGE

The Symptom Index liststrouble symptoms that could be
encountered on 3277 Display Stations and features. Illustrations that show both correct and in~orrect display
,images are also, contained in this section. Use the Symptom
Index and illustrations as the first step in asystematic
method of resolving display station problems. The index is
divided into six major categories:
1. Display malfunctions.
2. Keyboard malfunctions.
3. Selector light-pen malfunctions.
4. Power malfunctions.
5.' CPU error indications.
6. Operator identification card reader malfunctions.
Some categories are divided into subcategories, making it
easier'to relate the trouble 'experienced to the correct item
in the index. Beginning with 1A 1, the first item that most

closely describes the display station trouble should be used.
Categories and specific items are identified by a one-, two-,
or three-letter/number code (e.g., 1 A 1, 2G, or 4) in the left
columh of the index. 'The c6de specifies the entry point
into the Troubleshooting Diagrams in Section 4.
the right column of the Symptom Index specifies action
to take to remedy the display station problem. That
column directs the Customer Engineer to a sectio'n troubleshooting diagram sheet or specifies a logic card (or cards) to
change. When more than one card is listed, isolate the
failing card by card swapping from among those specified.
Change the'.failing card and return the others to stock. The
right column may also specify an adjustment procedure in
Section 5.
Diagrams 3-1 through 3-24 show both correct and some
incorrect display images. The symptom list refers to these
illustrations to aid in identifying display station symptoms.
As an aid to rapid repair, diagrams that show incorrect
display images also specify the repair action.
3.2 DEVELOPING SYMPTOMS

Display station malfunctions should be isolated offline
unless the trouble occurs only when operating online
through the control unit to the host CPU. Failures of this
type are listed ,in Category 5 (CPU Error Indications).
Display station operations that require a formatted buffer
for failure symptoms to become evident are:

3~Symptom

Index

1. Selector light-pen operations.
2; Display intensity control : (high ,intensity' and nondisplay).
3. Protected and numeric field operations.
4. Tab op,erations;
5. Erase input and erase field operations.
T est Pattern 1 contains fields that test these operations.
The test pattern may be loaded from the system as an RFT
or OL T. Test tapes can also be used to load the patterns
necessary to test these operations. Symptoms that require
a formatted buffer are marked with an asterisk (*) in the
Symptom Index.

Note: Appendix A contains offline procedures to format

I

the buffer to test the selec,tor light-pen feature on 3277s
attached to a 3274 Control Unit.

Offline symptoms should be developed by performing
the following test sequence after, the 1/0 signal cable is
removed.
1. Turn power on. (Always begin fr'om a power-on reset
condition.)
2. Test cursor move keys~, t, ,},~, ~, ~;~

3.3IN1ERMffTENTPROBLE,MS
Intermittent problems can be caused by excessive ripple on

the output voltage of the display station LV power supply,
and by missing or improperly connected ground wires on
control units and display stations.
Excessive power supply ripple voltage can cause intermittent data checks and I/O errors. To' minimize
intermittent problems caused by the LV power supply ;
make the following checks:
1. Check that all power supply capacitor screws are tight.
2. Check that the LV power supply output voltages do not
exceed the specified tolerances . given in paragraph
5. ~ .3-:1.
3. ,Check that the LV power supply output r'ipple voltages
do not exceed the following tolerances:

PS Voltqge
+5
+8

Tolerance (mv)
200
300

Improper ground connections resulting in ground loops
can cause intermittent problems such as: timeouts,
"hanging in transmit", failure of "request-to-send" to fall
false status information, data checks with and without uni~
specify, equipment checks, and intervention required. To
minimize intermittent problems caused by improperly
cor'lnected or missing ground wires, check the ground
system, as follows:
1. Check the display station ac power connector for loose
or otherwise poor ground connections.
2. Check for missihg ground connections at the control
unit:
8. Ensure that power is off at the control unit and the
attached display stations, that power cords are
plugged into the ac receptacles, and that the coaxial

3·2

cable is connected at the display station(s) and
disconnected at the control unit.
b. Measure the ac voltage at the control unit, between
any 008 pin and frame ground. A reading of OV is
correct. If 50 to 70 volts are present, the ground
connection is missing.
3. Check the control unit and display station ground
connections as follows:
'
,
a. With po'wer off, and the control unit connected to
the CPU (or modem), and the coaxial cable to the
display station plugged at the control unit end
measure 0 ohm at the control uni~ betw,een dc ground
, and frame ground.
b. Measure 0 ohm at th'e display station between the end
of the coaxial cable shield and frame ground.
4. Check the control unit and display station for ground
loops:
a. In a remote installation, check that signal ground and
frame ground are connected at one location '6nly,
either in the external modem or in the modem cable
that is connected to the 3271 unit.
'
b. In a local installation, ch,eck that signal and frame
ground are connected at one location only, either in
the channel or in the CPU.
c. Disconnect the channel or modem cable a~ the
control unit and all device cables at the co~trollmit,
and check for an infinite resistance reading between
control unit signal ground (008) ~nd frame ground.
d. With the display station disconnected from the
control unit, check for a minimum resistance read'ing
of 7K or 10K ohms between the disp'lay station signal
and frame grounds.

Note: Also, if a keyboard is attached, check the
keyboard cable for ground loops. I nstallation of ECA
035 corrects keyboard ground loop prpblems:

Section 4. Troubleshooting Diagrams

The Troubleshooting Diagrams (29 sheets) in this section
should be used as directed by the Symptom Index (Section
3). The diagrams are flowcharts arranged in a sequ~nce that
ensures successful trouble resolution in a minimum time.
The steps in the flowcharts must be followed in sequence
because successive steps depend on the actions and results
obtained in preceding steps. Although the sequence may
seem illogical and shortcuts may seem apparent, deviation is
discouraged to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort and
prolonged service calls.
Sheet 1 determines whether the symptom experienced is
caused by a display station problem or by a control unit
problem. Subsequent flowcharts cover display, keyboard,
selector pen, and card reader malfunctions. Additional
sheets analyze power troubles and miscellaneous keyboard
assembly electrical and mechanical troubles.
Observe good safety habits while working on the display
station with power on. High voltage is present at the CRT
anode, the yoke assembly, the HV power supply, and the
voltage distribution points. Always remove power from the
display station when removing or replacing logic cards. This
avoids damaging circuitry on that card or other cards
feeding it.
The flowcharts use the terms "replace card XX" and
"change card XX". "Replace" means to reinstall the same
card that was earlier removed; "change" means to install a
new card from stock. The old card being changed is the
probable cause of the failure.
Two unique symbols are used in the flowcharts. The
symbol

4. Green Blink - solid red with one (and only one) green
blink.
5. Pulsing Red - solid green with regular red pulses. (Any
frequency of pulses as long as green indicator appears to
stay on.)
6. Pulsing Green - solid red with regular green pulses. (Any
frequency of pulses as long as red indicator appears to
stay on.)
7. Red and Green - approximately equal red and green
pulses (any frequency).
The same conditions can be observed using the new G LP
(General Logic Probe), PN 453212. The difference from the
older-style logic probe is that the G LP uses UP in place of
red to indicate a plus level and DOWN in place of green to
indicate a minus level. This difference must be kept in mind
when troubleshooting with the GLP because the flowcharts
in this manual were designed for use with the older-style
logic probe.
The card-shaped symbol

appearing at the end of a diagnostic sequence gives the
location of the card(s) to be replaced that will repair the
problem. It also means to take the following action:

1. Turn power off.

means to probe (with the logic probe) the point designated
in the symbol. Seven logic probe conditions can be seen
with the older style probe (PN 453652). An output line
from the probe symbol specifies one of the seven conditions. If the observed condition is the same as that
specified in the flowchart, continue down that part of the
flowchart. If the observed result is different from the
specified result, use the part of the flowchart labeled
"Other". The seven logic probe observations specified in
the flowcharts and their definitions are as follows:
1. Red - solid red.
2. Green - solid green.
3. Red Blink - solid green with one (and only one) red
blink.

2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Change card (s).
Turn power on.
Verify that trouble is repaired.
Replace covers.
Return display station to user.

When more than one card is listed in the symbol, isolate
the failing card by card-swapping from among those
specified. Change the failing card, and retwrn the others to
stock. If changing the specified cards does not repair the
problem, check all voltages on the A 1 board backpanel at
these card locations. Use Diagram 6-19 to identify the
voltages and voltage pins.
The flowcharts call out certain check, adjustment, and
removal procedures. Because of their length and their
utility as standalone procedures, they are contained in
Section 5. Flowchart references to these procedures appear
as three- or four-digit numbers, indicating the paragraphs in
Section 5 where the procedures are found.

Check that all basic cards are installed and seated
properly before beginning the troubleshooting procedure.
Basic cards for Model 1 display stations areC-E and G-K.
Model 2 basic cards are C-K. Applicable feature cards
should also be installed and seated properly. Diagram 6-17
shows .logic board card plugging for display stations with no

4-2

features (1/2 board); Diagram 6-18 shows card plugging for
display stations that have features installed (2/3 board).
The logic probe is used extensively in th is section to
isolate failing cards. Ensure that the logic probe is operating
correctly before troubleshooting. Use the procedure in
paragraph 2.1.3.3 to check out the probe.

This section contains all alignment, adjustment, and
removal procedures necesspry to maintain IBM 3277
Display Stations. It also contains service checks and
checkout procedures to determine whether adjustments are
required and to verify the accuracy of any adjustments
made.

CHECKS

Display Station Test Using Test Pattern 1

A comprehensive test of the display station and all attached
features is performed by using diagnostic Test Pattern 1 and
the procedures described in the following paragraphs. The
step-by-step procedures describe the sequence in which the
various operations should be performed and the results
expected of each operation.
The tests should be performed in the sequence
presented, because each test is dependent on data left on
the screen from preceding tests. The observations described
in paragraph 5.1.1.1 apply to all display stations. Further
testing depends on what features are attached to the display
station.
If a problem is discovered while performing this operational test, refer to the Symptom I ndex or the Troubleshooting Diagrams to resolve the problem.
Note: Test Pattern 1 is not available for 3277 Display
Stations attached to a 3274 Control Unit. Therefore, paragraphs 5.1.1.1 through 5.1.1.5 do not apply to these 3277s.
Go to paragraph 5.1.2 for Display Station Operational
Test (without Test Pattern 1).
Refer to Appendix A for offline procedures to test the
selector light pen on 3277s attached to a 3274.

5.1.3 Voltage Checks
A ferroresonant transformer (ferro) with a 11 dv ac primary
and multiple secondary taps provides all display station
voltages. (World Trade Corporation display stations use a
ferro with a tapped primary winding.) The ferro is
protected by fuse F1 in serles with its primary winding. F1
is located in the prime power box. Display station voltages
consist of low de voltages, high dc voltages, and 6.3V ac
CRT filament voltage. These voltages can be checked at the
LV printed circuit (PC) board or at Terminal Board 1
(TB1 ).
Refer to the Symptom Index and Troubleshooting
Diagrams if a voltage is incorrect or is missing.

5.1.3. 1 Low- Voltage DC Checks
Model 1: For +8V and -12V, measu re the low dc voltages at
the capacitor screws on the LV printed circuit board.
Diagram 7-9 shows the location and the polarity of the
capacitor screws. Remove the left side cover for access to
the Circuit board. For +5V and +34V, measure the voltages
at the fuse holders at A/F1-B for +5V and A/F2-B for +34V
(Diagram 1-3).
Model 2: For +8V and -12V, measure the low dc voltages
through .the access holes in the ,shield that covers the
printed circuit board. A line with arrowheads at each end
designates the pairs of terminals associated with each
Voltage. For +5V and +34V, measure thevoltages at the
fuse holders at 01C/F 1-B for +5V and 01C/F2-B for +34V
(Oiagram 7-5). Diagram 7-10 illustrates the PC board shield.
Checks, Adjustments, and Removals

5·3

RemO've the front cO'ver fO'r access to' the circuit bO'ard.
Observe the PO'laritiesof the terminals, and probe with
the cO'rrect test leads to' prevent damage to' the meter. The
fO'IIO'wing vO'ltages can be measured at the PC bO'ard:
+5V ±10% (This vO'ltage is prO'tected by fuse at
A/F1 (MO'del 1) Diagram 7-3 and 01C/F1
(MO'del 2) Diagram 7-5.)
+8V ±12% (This voltage is protected by fuse F2 O'n
PC bO'ard.)
+34V ±10% (This vO'ltage is prO'tected by fuse at
A/F2 (MO'del 1), Diagram 7-3 and 01C/F2
(MO'del 2), Diagram 7-5.)
-18V (This vO'ltage is fuse-protected by fuse F3 O'n
PC bO'ard and is the input to'· the -12V
regulatO'r card. If this vO'ltage is missing, the
-12V will alsO' be missing.)
-12V ±4%
5.1.3.2 High- Voltage Check
The only high voltage that should be checked is the +400V
dc (which is derived from the HV power supply). If this
voltage is correct, the other high voltages for the CRT
should also be correct. Because the +400V is a low-current
supply, it is impossible to obtain an accurate measurement
with the standard voltmeter. Check the arc-suppression
circuitry whenever HV troubles occur.
1. Turn power off.
2. Set voltmeter selector switch to a position that will
measure up to +400V dc.
3. Connect minus (-) meter lead on any dc return
terminal.
4. Connect plu;s (+) meter lead to HV power supply
terminal 2 (Diagram 7-14) by sliding push-on connector
back slightly.
5. Turn power on.
6. Check for a meter indication of +400V ±50V dc.
(Because this voltage is a low-current supply, it is
impossible to measure the +400V dc operating voltage
with the IBM meter; therefore, the wide range of ±50V
is given.) If voltage is correct, turn power off, remove
test leads from term ina Is, and check the arc-suppression
circuitry (paragraph 5.1.3.3). If voltage is incorrect,
proceed with steps 7 -10.
7. Turn power off.
8. Remove push-on connectors from HV power supply
terminals 1 and 2.
9. Turn power on.
10. Check again for +400V ±50V dc on terminal 2. If
voltage is correct, turn power off, remove test leads
from terminals, reconnect power supply push-on connectors, and check the arc-suppression circuitry
(paragraph 5.1.3.3). If voltage is still incorrect, change
the HV power supply (paragraph 5.3.2.10).
.
5.1.3.3 Arc-Suppression Check
A defective arc-suppression circuit may aPPear as a defec5·4

tive HV power supply or analog card. If excessive trouble is
experienced with either of the two assemblies, check the
arc-suppression circuitry as listed below. Arc-suppressiO'n
circuitry is located on the arc-suppression board (Z1,
Diagram 7-15) on Model 1 display statiO'ns and on the
voltage distribution board (TB 1, Diagram 7~ 11) on Model 2
display stations.
Visual Checks:
1. Check for bent, broken, or missing wires.
2 ...Check for bent capacitor leads that are toO' close to
other cO'mponents and cou,ld cause arcing.
3. Check for broken capacitors or other components
showing obvious damage.
Model 1 Resistance Checks:
1. Turn power off.
2. Remove arc-suppression board from its socket.
3. With the CE YOM, check between the fO'llowing pairs of
pins on the· arc-suppression board for the resistances
specified:
E7 and E 13 - ,Infinity
E9and E13 - 1 Megohm
E7 and E 14 - Infinity
E10 and E14 - 1 Megohm
4. Replace. the arc-suppression board if the. resistances are
not correct.
Model 2 Resistance Checks:
1. Turn power off.
2. Disconnect wires from voltage distribution board terminals 12, 13, 14, and 15.
3. With the CE YOM, check between the fO'llowing pairs of
pins on the voltage distribution board for the resistances
specified:
13and 16-lnfinity
12 and 13 - 1 Megohm
14 and 16 - Infinity
14 and 15 - 1 Megohm
4. Replace voltage distribution board if the resistances are
not correct.
If the above checks dO' not reveal an obvious fault in the
arc~suppression Circuit and if excessive trouble persists,
change the 'arc-suppression board (Model 1 ) or the voltage
distribution bO'ard (MO'del 2). Return to Diagram 4-1, sheet
4, if the checks were performed as a result O'f instructions in
the troubleshO'oting diagrams.
5.1.3.4 6.3V AC Check
The CRT filament voltage of6.3V ac. (±10%) is theonly ac
vO'ltage used in the display station. A quick check to
determine if 6.3V ac is present is to' 10O'k fO'r a glowing
filament at the back O'f the CRT neck, near the tube socket.
The CRT cone shield must be removed to see filament (par.
5.3.3.2, steps 1-3). This voltage is protected by fuse F1
IO'cated O'n the LV PC board.
1. Turn·PO'wer O'ff.
2. Set voltmeter selector switch to' a position that will
measure 6.3V ac.

3. Remove fuse Flo (Remove shield for access on Model 2
. display stations.)
4. Connect a meter lead on each end of fuse holder.
5. Turn power on.
6. Check for a meter indication of 6.3V ac.
7. Turn power off, and remove meter leads from fuse
holder.
8. Reinstall fuse and shield (if removed).

While performing the following checks, the keyboard
assembly should be visually inspected for shorts or grounds
that could cause erratic operation or erroneous results.
A faulty keyboard assembly should be replaced with a
good one. A faulty Type A assembly should be returned to
the factory if it is ,less than one year old. The date code is
marked on Type A keyboard assemblies by week (01-52)
and year.

5.1.3.5 High-Voltage Power Supply Check

5. 1.4. 1 Voltages

1. Turn power off.
2. Remove HV power supply leads 3 (UV) and 4 (DC
return). See Diagram 7-14.
3. Set CE VOM selector switch to 'AX1 0 position.
4. Measure resistance between HV power supply pins 3 and

Type A Keyboards (See Diagrams 7-7 and 7-8 for Type ,A
keyboard locations) :
1. Check, for -12V,dc between KBl pinsZ(-) and X
(ground).
2. Check for +8V dc betw~en KB1 pins V(+) and X
(ground).
3. Check for +5V dc across keyboard capacitor C1. This
voltage is developed (by the voltage regulator on the
keyboard assembly) from the display station +8V dc
power supply. Replace the keyboard assembly if the
+8V dc is correct and the +5V dc is nofcorrect.'

4.
5. Reverse meter leads and measure again.
6. Replace HV power supply (par. 5.3.2.10) if readings in
step 4 or 5 indicate a shorted or open condition.
5.1.4 Keyboard Checks
Two different style keyboards may be found on IBM 3277
Display Stations. Both are identical. in operation and vary
only slightly in external appearance. The rows of keys on
Type "A" keyboards have an even slope downward from
top to bottom. The rows of keys on Type liB" keyboards
are slightly concave. The two types can' bedistingu ished
with the 'keyboard coVer removed~y observing the location
and type of cable connection and the location of the +5V
regulator (large transistor on heat sink). The Type A
keyboard cable plugs into the rear edge of the printed
circuit board, and the regulator is located in the left corner
of the circuit board. The Type B keyboard cable plugs into
a 24-pin SL T connector wh ich is mounted in the left corner
of the circuit board, and the regulator is located in the right
corner of the circuit board.
Thefollowingpa'ragraphs contain check procedures
which can be used to isolate keyboard problems. When the
check procedure differs for the different keyboard types (A
and B), the differences are noted. Ensure that the correct
procedure is used. Keyboard problems can be isolated to
one of three possible areas:
1. External to the keyboard.
2. A FRU in the keyboard.
3. The keyboard assembly. (Type' A assembly consists' of
circuit board with key modules; Type B assembly
consists of circuit board and electronics assembly with
key modules in an all-keys assembly.)
Problems external to the keyboard should be diagnosed as
outlined in the Troubleshooting Diagrams. Keyboard FRUs
include key buttons, switch modules, spacebar assembly,
support modules (Type A only), circuit board and electronics assembly (Type B only), and the audible response
device. Do not attempt to repair any other keyboard units.

Type B Keyboards (See Diagram 7-19 for Type B keyboard
locations) :
1. Check for -12V dc b~tween KB1 pin 002 (-) and 008
(ground).
2. Check for +8V dc on one of the voltage regulator
terminals (under the circuit board and electronics
assembly) and +5V dc on the other terminal. Reference
the meter negative (-) lead to test pin 008. Input to the
regulator is +8V dc, and the output is +5V dc. Replace
circuit board and electronics assembly if the +8\1 dc is
correct and. the' +5V dc is incorrect. Check KB1
connector and display station power supply if +8V and
+5V are incorrect.
5.1.4.2 Key Module and Encoding - Type A Keyboards
Only (Diagram 6-19)
Correctly functioning key mod.ules present two active
(2.5V dc minimum) input lines tpthekeyboard assembly
encoder. With two and only two active inputs present, the
encoder generates the strobe signal and, the encoded
character output. This procedure checks that the strobe
signal is generated properly, and the key modules activate
only two inputs to the encoder. Replac~the key module if
it is found to be defective. Replace the keyboard assembly
if the encoder or the printed circuit board is defective.
Strobe check:
1. Set selector switch on volt,ohmmeter to a position that
will accurately measure 5V dc.
2. Place minus (-) meter lead on KB 1 tab X (ground).
3. Place plus (+) meter lead on KB 1 tab R (strobe signal).
4. With no keys pressed, the meter should indicate at least
2.5V. If the meter indicates 0.6V or lower, proceed to
step 7.
Checks, Adjustments, and Removals

5. PreSs and hold one alphameric key. The meter" should
indicate less than 0.6V. If the meter indicates 2.5V or
higher, replace the keyboard assembly.
6. Press and hold two alphameric keys simultaneously.
The meter should indicate at least 2.5V. Proceed to
paragraph 5.1.4.3 if the preceding resu Its are correct.

O.6V (or lower) with no keys pressed:
7. With meter leads attached as in steps 2 and 3, press two
alphameric keys simultaneously. If meter indicates
0.6V or lower, replace keyboard assembly.
8. Probe KB1 pins 0, E, F, \-I, J, K, L, M, and N (bits 0-7
and Parity, Diagram 7-8) with no keys pressed.
9. Note bit configuration of encoded output. With logic
probe, a red indication is a 1 bit, and a green indication
is a 0 bit. With voltmeter, greater than 2.5V is a 1 bit,
and less th~n 0.6V is a 0 bit.
10. Find code in 0 iagram 6-7 or 6-14 that corresponds to
bit configuration observed in step 9.
11. Check center two lead frame terminals of suspected
module for 2.5V or higher. (Keyboard assembly must
be removed from bottom pan for this voltage check.
See paragraph 5.3.5,3.)
12. Replace defective module if 2.5V or higher is measured
on both center terminals in step 11.
13. If only one terminal measures 2.5V or higher and other
measures 0.6V or less, recheck steps 8 through 11. If
same results are obtained, replace keyboard assembly.
14. Replace keyboard assembly if less than 0.6V is
measured in step 11.
5.1.4.3 Output Codes
Theunshifted and shifted codes for all keys on both types
of keyboards (A or B) can be checked by the following
procedure, which uses the logic probe and Diagram 6-7 or
6-14. (Use Diagram 6-8 if the 3270 Data Analysis - APL
feature is installed.)
1. Press and release desired key. Hold SHIFT (NUMERIC
on data entry keyboards) key down while pressing key if
desired character is on top half of keYbutton. If APL is
installed, hold APL AL T key depressed, in conjunction
with character key, to enter APL alternate shift codes
when APL is active.
2. Probe pins listed below with logic probe, and note bit
configuration observed. A red (UP) indication is a 1 bit,
and a green (DOWN) indication is a 0 bit.

5.1.4,4 Shift Key Modules - Type A Keyboards Only
Two SHI FT keys and the shift LOCK key (NUMERIC and
NUM LOCK keys on data entry keyboards) generate an
input signal to the keyboard assembly encoder. The
encoder generates upsh ift character codes of the characters
appearing on the top half of the keyboard keys. The
following procedure isolates a shift module failure.
1. Set volt-ohmmeter selector switch to a position that will
accurately measure up to +5V dc.
2. Place minus (-) meter lead on KB 1 tab X (ground).
3. Check all three shift keys individually for 2.5V
(minimum) on both center leads of the corresponding
key module when each key is pressed and for 0.6V
(maximum) when key is restored.
4. Replace shift module that fails to generate proper levels
on both leads.
5. If shift module generates proper levels, and keyboard
generates incorrectly shifted characters (5.1.4.3), replace
,
keyboard assembly~
5.1.4.5 Spacebar Assembly Mechanical Checks
The spacebar assembly and mountings should. be checked
for easy·· motion and freedom from binds. The spacebar
should depress and return to the restored position without
drag or binds. Replace the spacebar assembly if binds,
broken mountings, or bent components are discovered. It
may not be necessary to replace the spacebar module
(actuator) if the problem is mechanical.
5.2 ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustment procedures for the IBM 3277 Display Station
should be performed after it is established that all operating
voltages are correct. Paragraph 5.1.3 details the voltage
checkout procedure.
5.2.1

Display Image Adjustments

Atest pattern generated by the diagnostic program provides
the display image to be used during image adjustment. Test
Pattern 2 is used to adjust the Model 1 display image, and
Test Pattern 3 is used to adjust the Model 2 display image.
The procedure for displaying' the required test pattern is
described in paragraph 2.2. If the program~generated test
pattern is not used, the test pattern image must be keyed in
from the keyboard. Diagrams 2-5 and 2-6 show Test
Patterns 2 and 3, respectively.
Adjustments should be performed in the sequence listed.
However, if only minor touchup adjustment is required,
analog card adjustments can be made separately. Use

5.2. 1. 1 Brightness

2. Short together the th ree test pins on analog card. Use a
clip or bare wire. (Pins are located between CHAR
HEIGHT potentiometer and SWEEP INDIC neon.) This
jumper disables vertical deflection and produces a single
horizontal trace across approximate middle of screen.
3. Loosen yoke clamp and rotate yoke until horizontal
trace is parallel to, or coincides with, horizontal lines on
alignment mask.
4. Ensure that yoke is firmly seated against CRT bell while
maintaining horizontal alignment obtained in step 3.
5. Tighten yoke clamp loosened in step 3.

Note: The Brightness control is the outer knob on the
OFF-PUSH switch.

5.2.1.5 Magnetic Centering Rings

Diagrams 7-1 through 7-6 to locate the adjustments
specified in the following procedures. The following
equipment is required.
Alignment mask:
Model 1 - PN 2577899 (Diagram 2-2)
Model 2 - PN 2565170 (Diagram 2-3)
Screwdriver (small blade)
SL T backpanel jumper

Adjust as follows:
1. With Brightness control fully counterclockwise, no
image should be visible.
2. At full clockwise rotation, raster may become visible.
Image may bloom and become excessively bright for
comfortable viewing if Contrast cOl,1trol (inner knob) is
fully counterclockwise.
3. Set Brightness control at point that produces best
display image for comfortable viewing.
5.2.1.2 Contrast
Note: Test Pattern 1 or a customer program that contains
dual brightness fields must be loaded to properly adjust the
Contrast control. The Contrast control is the inner knob on
the OFF-PUSH switch.
Adjust as follows:

1. With Contrast control fully counterclockwise, contrast
between normal and bright fields should be approximately equal.
2. At full clockwise rotation, contrast should be maximum.
Normal brightness characters may disappear from screen
if Brightness control (outer knob) is set at a low level.
3. Set Contrast control for comfortable viewing, with
desired amount of contrast between normal and bright
fields.
5.2.1.3 Focus
Adjust the Focus potentiometer to the point that produces
the sharpest display image. Observe closely the characters at
the center of the screen and those at the edges of the
screen. Set the potentiometer where the best focus over the
entire CRT is achieved. The Focus potentiometer is on the
HV power supply.
5.2.1.4

Yoke

1. Place proper alignment mask in position against face of
CRT.
Note: Use mask PN 2577899 to adjust Model 1 display
stations and mask PN 2565170 to adjust Model 2 display
stations. The yoke shield must be on the yoke before
making the following adjustments.

1. Leave vertical deflection grounding jumper (connected
in step 2 of paragraph 5.2.1.4) attached and the
alignment mask in place for this adjustment.
2. Loosen cone shield retaining screw, rotate cone counterclockwise until locking tabs disengage, and slide cone
back 25 to 38 mm (1 to 1-1/2 inches) to expose tabs on
centering rings.
3. Using tabs on centering rings, rotate rings until horizontal trace passes through geometric center of screen.
(Geometric center is indicated by crossed lines in center
of alignment mask. Vertical center is indicated by line B
on the Model 1 mask·and by line D on the Model 2
mask. Horizontal center is judged by comparing ends of
trace to vertical lines at edges of mask.)
4. Reinstall cone shield.
5. Proceed to paragraph 5.2.1.6 (Model 1 analog card
adjustments) or to paragraph 5.2.1.7 (Model 2 analog
card adjustments).
5.2.1.6 Model 1 Analog Card Adjustments
The procedures described in the following paragraphs apply
only to the IBM 3277 Model 1 Display Stations. See
paragraph 5.2.1.7 for Model 2 analog card adjustment
procedures. These procedures requ ire that the Model 1
alignment mask (PN 2577899) be positioned against the
face of the CRT.
Model 1 Horizontal Width: The vertical deflection
grounding jumper (connected in step 2 of paragraph
5.2.1.4) should remain attached during this adjustment.
Proceed as follows:
1. Adjust Horizontal Width potentiometer so that ends of
horizontal trace on screen coincide with vertical lines C
and E on alignment mask. When adjusted correctly,
trace should be 162.6 ± 1.6 mm (6.4 inches ± 1/16
inch).
2. Check to make sure that horizontal trace still passes
through geometric center of CRT (Line B). Readjust
centering rings as described in paragraph 5.2.1.5 if it is
necessary to move trace back through center of CRT.
3. Remove vertical deflection grounding jumper.
Checks, Adjustments, and Removals

Model 1 Top Margin: Adjust Top Margin potentiometer so
that top trace of first character row falls within line A
marked on alignment mask.

3. Remove vertical skip disabling jumper. Display image
should appear nearly normal, with inter-row spacing.
Overall image may be too large or too small.

Model 1 Character Height: Adjust Character Height potentiometer so that bottom trace of characters in last row falls
within line D of alignment mask. When adjusted correctly,
overall height of display image should be 99.1 mm (3.9
inches).

Model 2 Inter-Row Spacing: Adjust Row Spacing potentiometer so that bottom trace of characters in last row falls
within line F on alignment mask. When adjusted correctly,
overall height of image should be approximately 203 mm
(8.0 inches) from line B to line F.

Model 1 Linearity: After completing the yoke, centering
ring, and analog card adjustments, check that 20th and 21st
characters on sixth and seventh rows fall within rectangle H
at center of alignment mask. Test Pattern 2 provides
characters in these four locations. Recheck preceding
adjustments if this specification is not met.

Model 2 Linearity: After completing yoke, centering ring,
and analog card adjustments, check that 40th and 41st
characters on 12th and 13th rows fall within rectangle M on
alignment mask. Test Pattern 3 provides characters in these
four locations. Recheck preceding adjustments if this
specification is not met.

5.2.1.7 Model 2 Analog Card Adjustments
The procedures described in the following paragraphs apply
to Model 2 display stations only. (See paragraph 5.2.1.6 for
the Model 1 analog card adjustment procedures.) The
following procedures require that the Model 2 alignment
mask (PN 2565170) be in place at the face of the CRT and
Test Pattern 3 be displayed.
Model 2 Horizontal Width: The vertical deflection
grounding jumper (connected' in step 2 of paragraph
5.2.1.4) should remain attached during this adjustment.
Proceed as foil ows:
1. Adjust Horizontal Width potentiometer so that ends of
horizontal trace on screen coincide with lines E and G
on alignment mask. When adjusted correctly, trace
should be 266.7 mm (10.5 inches).
2. Check to make sure that horizontal trace still passes
through geometric center of CRT (line D). Readjust
centering rings as described in paragraph 5.2.1.5 if it is
necessary to move trace back through center of CRT.
3. Remove vertical deflection grounding jumper.
Model 2 Top Margin:
1. Connect a jumper between logic board pin A lJ2M03
and ground (any D08 pin). This jumper disables vertical
skip circuit, causing inter-row spacing to disappear and
display image to gather toward top of screen.
2. Adjust Top Margin potentiometer so that top trace of
first character row falls within center of line A (marked
on alignment mask).
Model 2 Character Height:
1. Leave vertical skip disabling jumper attached for this
adjustment.
2. Adjust Character Height potentiometer so that bottom
trace of characters in last row coincides with center of
line C on alignment mask. When adjusted correctly,
overall height of display image should be 83.8 mm (3.3
inches) from line A to line C.

5.3 R.EMOVALS
The following paragraphs describe removal and replacement
procedures for IBM 3';.77 Display Station FRUs. Where the
procedure for removing and replacing a unit in the Model 1
display station differs from the procedure used with the
Model 2 display station, a separate paragraph describing the
unique procedure is presented. All removal and replacement

procedures require that the desired unit has been made
accessible· by the removal of necessary covers and made safe
by the removal of power. The top cover can be left on the
display station while performing most maintenance procedures. This provides a degree of safety by keeping the
CRT covered.

5.4.1 Cleaning
The importance of cleanliness when servlcmg Type B
keyboards cannot be overemphasized. Any particle between
the key module flyplate and the printed circuit board is a
potential problem.

Identification

Card

Reader

(Optional

1. Disconnect card reader cable ground strap from chassis.
2. Remove card reader cable connector from its socket. On
Model 1 display stations, nylon cable damp must be
removed. On Model 2 display stations, the I/O cable
retainer must be unhooked to release cable connector.
3. Replace in reverse order.
4. Ensure that all I/O cable connectors are firmly seated in
sockets and that all ground straps are attached to chassis
ground terminal.

Before reassembling the keyboard assembly, the printed
circuit board and key module flyplates must be carefully
cleaned by wiping each With a lint-free cloth dampened
with isopropyl alcohol. Be careful not to dislodge or
remove flyplates from key modules while cleaning. Replace,
rather than attempt to repair, the key module if the
flyplate separates from the module.
5.4.2 Liquid Spills
Some minor liquid spills, such as soft drinks or coffee with
sugar, can be removed by first "washing" the PC board and
affected flyplates with a lint-free cloth dampened with a
mixture of water and mild hand soap. "Rinse" with a
water-dampened, lint-free cloth. Finally, clean with lint-free
cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol.

Note: Sticky key modules must be replaced. A severe liquid
spill may necessitate replacement of the entire keyboard
assembly.
5.4.3 Key Modules
Two types of key modules, the original "black body"
module and a new "super slick" white body module, are
currently in use on Type B keyboards. Super slick key
modules must not be used on keyboards that are attached
to 3277 display stations. These modules can cause intermittent errors.

5.4 TYPE B KEYBOARD MAINTENANCE AIDS

5.4.4 Contamination Shields

The Symptom Index in Chapter 3 and the Troubleshooting
Diagrams in Chapter 4 isolate Type B keyboard malfunctions. The check and removal procedures presented earl ier
in this ch.apter provide detailed instructions for repairing
keyboard faults. This section provides miscellaneous maintenance aids to supplement the existing procedures. These

Some keyboards have foam strips, foam side insulators, and
a 0.038 mm (1.5-mil) protective membrane/shield added to
prevent contamination from entering the PC board and flyplate area during customer use. The presence of these
shields is a function of the EC level of the keyboard. The
shields are shown in Diagram 7-18.
Checks, Adjustments, and Removals 5-21

5.4.5 Protective Membrane/Shield
When removing a key module from a keyboard with the
protective shield, care must be taken not to puncture the
shield when snapping out the defective module.
5.4~6

Ground Check

There should be continuity between the two base plate
grounding studs (Diagram 5-13) and the dc ground circuit
on the PC board. Grounding can be checked with an
ohmmeter connected between the base plate and the
ground -pin, 008, at the interface signal connector, KB 1.
5~4.7

Ground Loop -Isolation

Nonconductive inserts have been added to the base plate
holding screws on some keyboard assemblies to isolate the
base plate and PC board dc ground from the all-keys
assembly. With the keyboard assembly disconnected from
the 3277, check to ensure that the base plate and all-keys
assembly are not electrically shorted.

5.4.8 Crooked or Loose Key tops
Key module stems can be formed left or right to align a
crooked looking key top. The keystem ears can be widened
to tighten loose key tops.

Section 6. Reference Data

This section contains miscellaneous reference information
that can be helpful in maintaining IBM 3277 Display
Stations.

6.1 CONTROLS
Controls are divided into two categories: external and
internal. External controls are those that are accessible
without removing covers. Internal controls are those that
are under covers and are accessible to maintenance personnel only. The audible alarm volume control, although
located under the front cover, is considered an external
control because the display station operator can adjust the
volume.
6.1.1

External Controls (Diagram 6-1 )

toward the operator turns display station power on. The
overall displayed image is made brighter by rotating the
Brightness control (outer knob) clockwise; the image is
made dimmer by rotating the knob counterclockwise. The
Contrast control (inner knob) is on a concentric shaft with
the Brightness control. Rotating the Contrast control
clockwise reduces the difference in contrast between high
and normal intensity characters; rotating the control
counterclockwise increases the difference in contrast.
6.1.1.2 Security Keylock (Optional Feature)

This operator control is a key-operated switch lock. The
key must be inserted in the lock and turned on (horizontal
position) to enable the display station for operation. The
key must remain in the On position to keep the display
station enabled. The key cannot be removed from the lock
unless it is returned to the Off position.

6.1.1.1 OFF-PUSH (Power, Brightness, and Contrast)

The OFF-PUSH switch is a triple-function control that
adjusts the display image brightness and contrast. It also
controls display station power. Pulling the switch out

overall height of the displayed image. The ROW SPACI NG
control is not used in Model 1 display stations.
6.1.2.6 TOP MARGIN

6.1.1.4 Audible Alarm Volume (Optional Feature)

The loudness of the audible tone can be adjusted by the
display station operator by turning the audible alarm
volume control. The front cover must be lowered for access
to the control. On Model 1 display stations, the control
protrudes downward from the audible alarm box on the
right side of the base chassis. On Model 2 display stations
the control protrudes frontward from the audible alarm
box on the left side of the upper chassis.
6.1.1.5 Keyboard Audible Response

A knob at the rear of the keyboard bottom plate adjusts
the volume of the keyboard audible response device.
Volume can be adjusted from off (no click when a key is
depressed) to maximum loudness by rotating the knob.
6.1.2 Internal Controls
6.1.2.1 INTEN CRT

This momentary-contact switch is located on the display
station analog card. The switch overrides intensity and
blanking pulses generated by control logic and causes a
complete raster of scan lines to be displayed when pressed.
6.1.2.2 Focus

This control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer
located on the HV power supply. Turning the control varies
the sharpness of the dots that form the characters on the
screen.
6.1.2.3 WIDTH

The WI DTH control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer located on the analog card. Turning this control
varies the horizontal dot-to-dot spacing, which alters the
total width of the displayed image.
6.1.2.4 CHAR HEIGHT

This control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer
located on the analog card. Turning the control varies
vertical dot-to-dot spacing of the displayed image. On the
Model 1 display station, it determines the overall height of
the displayed image.
6.1.2.5 ROW SPACING (Model 2 Display Stations Only)

This control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer
located on the analog card. Turning the control varies

6-2

This control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer
located on the analog card. The control sets the top
reference line on the CRT, from which all other vertical
image adjustments are made. Once the control is set, the
reference line remains stationary during other vertical
character and image adjustments.
6.1.2.7 I mage Tilt

The deflection yoke, mounted on the CRT neck, is used to
tilt the entire displayed image. Rotating the yoke adjusts
the image for squareness with· the edges of the CRT bezel.
6. 1.2.8 Magnetic Centering Rings
The magnetic centering rings are mounted on the CRT
neck, directly behind the deflection yoke. The centering
rings are rotated to position the displayed image about the
geometric center of the CRT.

1.2.9 -12V Supply

This control is a screwdriver-adjustable potentiometer
located on the -12V regulator card. Turning the control sets
the voltage output of the -12V power supply.

6.2 INDICATORS
Display indicators, like controls, are divided into two
categories: external and internal. External indicators are
those that can be seen without removing any machine
covers. To observe internal indicators, covers must be
removed. Internal indicators are accessible only to
maintenance personnel.

6.2.1

External Indicators (Diagram 6-1)

The three external indicators on 3277 Display Stations are
displayed as small boxes (blips) generated by analog
circuitry. They are displayed at the right edge of the CRT.
Each indicator has its function identified by a label on the
CRT bezel, adjacent to the indicator. The brightness of the
indicators is controlled by the Brightness controL
6.2.1.1 SYSTEM AVAILABLE Indicator

This indicator is displayed at character row 4 on Model 1
display stations and at character row 10 on Model 2 display
stations. In remote system configurations, the indicator
sign ifies that the carrier is on and that the transm iss ion
control unit (TCU) is online when lighted. In local system

configurations, the indicator being on signifies that the
channel 'operational out' tag line is active.

6.3.1 Types of Keyboards
6.3.1.1 Typewriter Keyboard

6.2.1.2 INSERT MODE Indicator

This indicator is displayed at character row 6 on Model 1
display stations and at character row 12 on Model 2 display
stations. The indicator lights when the INSERT MODE key
on the keyboard is pressed. It signifies that the display
station is in the Insert mode of operation. The indicator
remains on, and the display station remains in Insert mode
until the RESET key is pressed.
6.2.1.3 INPUT INHIBITED Indicator

This indicator is displayed at character row 8 on Model 1
display stations and at character row 14 on Model 2 display
stations. The lighted indicator signifies that manual input to
the display station from the keyboard, selector light pen,
and Operator Identification Card Reader is ·blocked. The
indicator is extinguished by . program control or by pressing
the RESET key. When the security keylock is off, this
indicator lights.
6.2.2 Internal Indicator (SWEEP INDIC)
The SWEEP INDIC indicator is a neon bulb mounted on
the display station analog card. The lighted indicator
signifies that· the horizontal deflection circuits are operating.
6.2.3 Arc-Suppression Neon
The arc-suppression neon is located on the arc-suppression
board in Model 1 display stations and on the voltage
distribution board in Model 2 display stations. It is not an
,indicator and will never be seen lighted. The two elements
of the neon bulb are connec~ed between de ground (RET)
and th~ display station frame ground. The neon acts as a
momentary short circuit whenever the difference in potential between its two elements would have exceeded approximately 90V. The difference in potential is occasionally
generated by the inherent characteristic of a cathode-ray
tube to arc. Arcing causes transients in the return path of
the tube. Restricting potentials to 90V to ground protects
display station circuitry from possible damage.

6.3 KEYBOARDS (Optional Feature)
Four keyboards are used with 3277 Display Stations.
Keyboards of the same type are interchangeable. among
display stations having keyboard adapter circuitry installed.
EBCDIC is the basic code used on all keyboards.

The typewriter keyboard uses a standard typewriter key
layout of 66 keys. An additional 12 Program Function keys
may be incorporated in the standard typewriter keyboard.
Diagram 6-2 illustrates the typewriter keyboard.
6.3.1.2 Operator Console Keyboard

The operator console keyboard uses an IBM 1052-7 type
key layout with an additional 12 Program Function keys.
Diagram 6-4 illustrates the operator console keyboard.
6.3.1.3 Data Entry Keyboards

The two data entry keyboards use 66 keys, consisting of 36
alphameric keys and 30 control keys. Diagram 6-5 illustrates the two data entry keyboards.
6.3.2 EBCDIC Keyboard Codes
The EBCDIC code is the standard code used with all 3270
system keyboards. Diagram 6-7, Sheet 1, shows the keyboard codes for the typewriter and operator console
keyboards. Characters (and functions) are shown in the
Graphics column as they appear on typewriter keyboard
key tops. The operator console keyboard key layout is
similar. Sheet 2 shows the EBCDIC code arrangement used
on the data entry keyboard( s). Diagrams 6-14 and 6-15
show the codes for unique ASCII and WTC language
characters.
6.4 ASCII OPTIONS
ASCII * character generator and keyboard options may be
present on 3277 Display Stations. ASCII options are
available only in the United States and Canada. The
following paragraphs describe the characteristics of these
options.
6.4.1 ASCII Character Generators (Optional Features)
Two ASCII character generator options allow the ASCII
code set to be displayed. The ASCII code set includes the
symbols [, ], \ , and A which are not used in the 3277
EBCDIC code set. ASCII option A uses the symbols I and
.." while option B substitutes the symbols ! and A
respectively. Each option requires a different character

generator logic card in location K2. Maintenance of the
display station is not affected by the presence of the ASCII
option; however, if logic card K2 must be changed, the
same type number card must be used.
6.4.2 ASCII Keyboards (Optional Features)
Two ASCII typewriter keyboards can be attached to th~
3277 Display Station. They are similar to EBCDIC typewriter keyboards described in paragraph 6.3.1.1, except
unique ASCII characters are included on some key tops. PF
keys 1-12 are included in the 78-key version. AscfI
keyboards are serviced like EBCDIC keyboards, and operationally they are the same. Unique logic cards are not used,
but ASC II character generator option A or B must be
installed to enter and display the unique ASCII characters.
Option A provides the 64 ASCII character set including the
symbols I (logical or) and -, (logical not). Option B
provides the 64 ASCII character set but substitutes !
(exclamation point) for logical or and " (circumflex) for
logical not.
6.5 API.,. OPTIONS
The 3270 Data Analysis - APL Feature expands the number
of different characters and symbols that can be entered and
displayed by the 3277 Display Station, Model 2. A
five-shift APL keyboard (Diagram 6-3) and a new line
buffer and character generator card (0 iagrams 6-16, 6-20,
and 6-21) provide these expanded capabil ities.
The number of data codes necessary to represent the
entire character set available with the 3270 Data Analysis APL Feature is larger than the number of possible data
codes on a standard 3277. (Only seven data bits can be
stored in each character position of the buffers in standard
machines.) The 3270 Data Analysis - APL Feature increases
the number of possible data codes by using the control bit
as an 8th data bit for some characters. Attribute
recqgnition circuits have been modified to distinguish true
attribute characters from those data characters that have
the control bit on.
On 3277 Display Stations with the 3270 Data Analysis APL Feature installed, a character will be recognized to be
a true attribute if:
The Control Bit
AND Bit 1
AND Bit 6

=1
=1
=0

Any other condition of these particular 'bits will be decoded
as data.

6.5.1

Line Buffer and Character Generator Card

The line buffer and character generator card used with the
3270 Data Analysis - APL Feature is capable of storing and
, displaying all standard characters, in addition to symbols
commonly associated with APL. This includes a full
uppercase and lowercase typewriter character set, APL
symbols, an uppercase underscored alphabet, and certain
overstruck symbols. This card also contains the circuitry
that distinguishes true attribute characters from those data
characters that have the control bit on.
6.5.2 APl Keyboard
The APL keyboard is similar to the standard 3277
typewriter keyboard, but has been expanded to provide five
shifts instead of two. One backspace key has been replaced
with the APL ON/OFF key, and the BACKTAB key has
been modified to provide the alternate shift function when
AP L is tu rned on.
The five shifts available from the 3277 APL keyboard
are:
1. Lower (APL off)
Lowercase alphabet, numeric,
and special characters.
Uppercase alphabet and special
2. Upper (APL off)
ch a racte rs.
Uppercase alphabet, numeric,
3. Lower (APL on)
and special characters.
APL symbols and special char4. Upper (APL on)
acters.
Uppercase underscored alphabet
5. Alternate (APL on)
and APL overstruck characters.
See Diagram 6-3 for a layout of the APL keyboard.
the keyboard is initially reset to lower shift (APL off)
by power-on-reset. APL is turned on by a single depression
of the APL ON/OFF key, and will remain on until this key
is pressed again or until a power off-on sequence is
performed. Upper and lower shift entry is controlled by the
SH IFT key, regardless of whether AP L is tu rned on or off.
Alternate shift entry is possible only when APL is turned
on. To enter alternate shift characters, the APL ALT key
must be held down while striking the desired character key.
The APL ALT key reverts to its original function (backtab)
when APL is turned off.
The APL keyboard generates a 9-bit parity code for
each character. The added bit (bit 8) is stored in the
control bit position of the buffers. Refer to 0 iagrams 6-8
through 6-12 for specific character codes. Diagram 7-20
contains APL keyboard pin and terminal locations.

6.5.3 Text Keyboard
The Text Keyboard 'is similar to the standard 3277
typewriter keyboard, but has been expanded to provide five
shifts. The backspace in the top row of keys has been
replaced with the ALTON/OFF keY,and the Test Req key,
the leftmost key in the bottom row, has been replaced with
the CODE key. The ALTON/OFF and CODE keys provide
the additional three shifts. the ALTERNATE mode indicator is located on the keyboard cover just above the ALT
ON/OFF key.
The five shifts that are available from the 3277 Text
keyboard are:
1. Lower (AL T off): Lowercase alphabet, numeric, and
o:;pecial characters.
2. Upper (AL T off): Uppercase alphabet and special
characters.
3. Lower (ALTon): Uppercase alphabet, numeric, and
special characters.
4. Upper (ALTon): Alternate symbols and special characters.
5. Code Key: Special characters on front of keys.
See Diagram 6-6 for TEXT keyboard layout.
When power is turned on, the keyboard will be in
lowercase standard shift. Alternate shift is turned on by a
single depression of the ALT ON/OFF key, and it will
remain on until the key is pressed again. Upper and lower
shift are controlled bytheshift key, regardless of the ALT

ON/OFF key status. CODE shift can be active with
Alternate mode ON or OFF. To enter CODE shift
characters, the CODE must be held depressed while striking
the desired character key.
The text keyboard generates a 9-bit odd parity code for
each character. The added bit (bit 8) is stored in the
control bit position of the buffers. Refer to Diagrams 6-9
and 6-13 for specific character, codes. Diagram 7 -21
contains pin and terminal locations.

6.6 REFERENCE DIAGRAMS
Diagrams 6-16 through 6-23 contain reference data that can
be helpful in maintaining IBM 3277 Display Stations.
Diagram 6-16 Iists all logic cards used in the display station
and describes the function of each card. All logic card I/O
pins used as probe points in the troubleshooting diagrams
(Section 4) are listed in Diagram 6-17. ALD references are
also listed. Logic board jumpering data for the various keyboard feature options is included in Diagram 6-18. Diagram
6-19 shows how characters are encoded in the keyboard
assembly. Diagrams 6-20 and 6-21 show logic card plugging
for the one-half and two-th irds boards, respectively. Logic
board pin identification data is given in Diagram 6-22.

Section 8. Installation Instructions

8.1 GENERAL

8.2.1 Line Voltage Check

Carefully inspect the display station for any obvious
damage as soon as it arrives on site. Check that all items
listed in the bills of material are received. It is extremely
important that po~er~source line voltage is correct and that
primary power connections in the' display station are
correct before power is applied to the unit. Do not turn
power on until the following checks are performed.

Domestic (USA) models use 115V ac (±10%), 60-Hz,
single-phase line voltage. No internal adjustments are
required for domestic display stations~

8.2 INSTALLATION
Check with the customer, and place display station in the
location designated by him. If it is necessary to move a
display station, observe good safety procedures.

ImpOrtant Note,' A grounded power source must be used.

World Trade models use 100, 110, 123.5, 220, 235V ac,
lQOV ac, 60-Hz single-phas~ line
voltage. Check that the:cormections on the ferro terminal
block, TB 1, agree with the line voltage provided. Diagram

'Appendix A. Offline Selector Light-Pen Test

This appendix contains offline procedures for formatting
the buffer and for testing the selector light-pen feature.
The procedures are used for 3277 Display Stations attached
to 3274 Control Units.
1. Take the display station offline by removing the signal
cable at the display station.
2. Press the CLEAR key, then the RESET key.
3. Move the cursor four positions to the right using the
cursor move keys (do not use the space bar).
4. Type in >SEL PEN/UNPROT.
5. Move cursor four additional positions to the right
using the cursor move keys (do not use the space
bar).
6. Type in ?SEL PEN/PROT.
7. Move cursor to the next row using the cursor move
keys.
8. Move cursor four positions to the right using the cursor
move keys (do not use the space bar).
9. Press space bar and type SEL PEN/UNPROT.
10. Move cursor six positions to the right using the cursor
move keys.
11. Type in NUM/UNPROT.
12. On board 01A A 1, install jumpers from C2S03 to
ground and from C2B08 to ground.
13. Cursor should now be located one position after the
NUM/PROT field.
Type in a space (Le., press
the space bar).
14. Using the cursor move keys only, move the cursor
backward to the first position to the left of the
NUM/UNPROT field.
15. Type in the character & (will not be displayed).
16. Using the cursor move keys only, move the cursor
backward to two positions to the left of the third
SEL PEN field (SEL PEN/UNPROT).
17. Type in the letter D (will not be displayed).
18. Move the cursor backward to the left of the? using
the cursor move keys.
19. Type in the letter Y (will not be displayed).
20. Move cursor to the left of the> using the cursor
move keys.
21. Type in the letter D (will not be displayed).
22. Remove the jumper from C2B08 to ground,

SEL PEN/UNPROT
field
is normal intensity,
selector pen detectable, and unprotected with a 'space'
as the designator character.
NUM/UNPROT field is numeric, unprotected, and
nQnselector pen detectable.
Field from the NUM/UNPROT to the end of screen
is unprotected, alphameric, normal intensity, and nonselector pen detectable.
If the selector light-pen feature is installed, detection of the
change the designator character to a ? and viceversa in either the first or second selector pen fields.
A successful detect on the third selector pen field (SEL
PEN/UNPROT) will cause the Input Inhibited indicator to
turn on. Press the RESET key to turn off the Input Inhibit
condition.
A ttempted keyboard entry into the high intensity field
will cause the Input Inhibited indicator to turn on. Press
the RESET key to turn off the Input Inhibit condition.
Attempted entry of alphabetic characters into the
NUM/UNPROT field with numeric lock feature installed
should cause the I nput I nhibited indicator to turn on.
Press the RESET key to turn off the Input Inhibit
condition.

Notes:
1. If the above tests fail and the buffer attributes are
suspected, they can be displayed by jumpering 01 A
A 1H2D07 to ground.
2. If a problem is discovered while performing this test,
refer to Symptom Index or Troubleshooting Diagrams
to resolve the problem.
3. The dual intensity fields can be used when performing
contrast adjustments.
CAUTION
When you have completed the offline tests, remove all test
jumpers before reconnecting the signal cableto the display
station.

The screen is now formatted as follows:
>SEL PEN/UNPROT field is normal
selector pen detectable, and unprotected.
