UPDATE:07/30/2019 This issue is resolved. Further testing indicated that the switch was, in fact,good. When operating the "SINGLE" push button (SW78B), the switch portion of the circuit was producing the expected momentary "Low" at the wire connected to PIN "H" and through to Pin#5 of U69 (156-0030-00 or SN7400N).

When operating the "SINGLE" push button (SW78B), the switch portion of the circuit was producing the expected momentary "Low" at the wire connected to PIN "H" and through to Pin#5 of U69 (156-0030-00 or SN7400N). I was able to clearly see this pulse on my scope when connected to the previously disconnected wire between Pin "H" of Step Family Switch and Pin "J" of the Step Generator board. Referring to the schematic lead me to swap out the IC's between U69 and U20 (same part). U20 seemed to be fully functional, since the related push buttons all produced their assigned function when operated. This part swap resulted in the single step family working, but the .5X Rate ceasing to function. This confirmed that the issue was indeed U69. I had some new SN7400N IC's in my repair parts, swapped in a new one to the U20 position, the entire circuit now functions as intended. | ||
