OT - Need Help/Info For Keithley 155 Null Detector/Microvoltmeter

Mike Harmon
 

Hi Group,

I have a Keithley 155 Null Detector/Microvoltmeter which has some
problems. I downloaded a manual from the Keithley web site, but when
I looked for the schematic, I couldn't find it. Section 5 of the
manual says the schematic is shown in Figure 5-3, but it's not there
in the manual provided on Keithley's download site. I contacted
Keithley about the omission and was told by John Sobola that all
schematics had been removed from downloadable manuals on Keithley's
site, as well as the instruction manuals for all current Keithley
products.

When I asked if he could send me one, he said I had to provide the
company with a bunch of info as to who I was, what company I
represented, what I did, and why I wanted a schematic. I sent him the
info he requested (it was for my own personal use), but did not
receive a reply from him for a couple of weeks. I wrote him back and
asked him if he needed more info, and he finally told me that the
company had decided not to make the schematics available. I suspect
if I had lied and told him that I was the engineering director of
Company X and we had $750,000 worth of Keithley gear in the lab, he
would have overnighted the schematic to me.

I have no idea as to why they would have done this, but it pretty much
makes the downloadable manuals useless without the schematic. As it
stands right now, I have a sweet little meter sitting on my bench
which is completely brain-dead!

Please let me know (OFFLINE) if you can help me out. I don't want to
start another flame war.

Thanks,
Mike, WB0LDJ

Greetings,

Thanks to good advice from this forum, my 895 printer is working great
on black and white. The red color works on both of my C1823 color
cartridges. Blue works on one. Neither works with the yellow. I have
tried cleaning the jets with 92% isopropal alcohol without result.
Suggestions?

Re: [TekScopes] BAMA scaling back

Tomas Larsson
 

I could quite possible start off from where BAMA ends.
However, I do need to find out how to automatically add manuals in a safe
way, since I cant devote too much time for it.
I'm guessing that I would need some help from you people as moderators, in
order to allow manuals to be published for download.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

As some of you probably are aware of, I do have a repository for NAK gear
and some test equipment as well.

I'm currently on SERVAGE with quite a lot of disk space and bandwidth
available.

With best regards

Tomas Larsson

my main work-site, sorry currently only in Swedish,
working with refrigeration.
My citroen XM repository, in Swedish.
for downloads etc.
ftp://ftp.servage.net for uploads use "naks" as both password and username.
Or you can use the free www.yousendit.com service.

Fellow techies in all groups (that I subscribe to),

I just found the following on Usenet from BAMA's owner.
It seems that storage is becoming a problem for him. I'm
posting this to all four groups I subscribe to because it
could potentially affect anyone who's searching for
documentation on older gear.

HP 5353A manual?

John Miles
 

Does anyone have a manual for the HP 5353A channel-C plugin for the 5345A
that covers serial number 1816 (or the change notes needed to cover it with
05353-90002)? I could use a couple of pages copied or scanned, if at all
possible...

HP boatanchor help

 

Hi all,

I am in the process of restoring a huge HP 524B counter. 100 tubes
and about 100 lbs makes it qualify in spades as a boatanchor!
After looking for many years I recently found one to replace my
butchered unit which was beyond restoration.

My (slight) problem is that the behemoth I have is a later model than
the manual I have. The main difference relates to the readout system
for the fastest two decades, which are centre-zero meters calibrated
0-9. The older manual shows the staircase voltage for these meters
derived from a resistor network driven from the plates of the counter
flip flop tubes. The actual unit I have has a plug in unit labelled
"524B-65A staircase amplifier" with four 12AX7 tubes.

Does anyone have any info on this change? I suspect the amplifier was
added to reduce loading on the counters which were already pushed to
the limit of what you could do with vacuum tubes. The 10 MHz decade
counter is a very complex bit of circuitry.

Thanks, and happy holidays,

Morris

Re: data aquisition switch

Hello Paul,

You're very welcome. The 34970A is a nice system.

As mentioned, I have a number of functional 3497A's, a couple of
untested 3498A extenders and a large amount of relevant hard copy
documentation, along with a various cards which have been tested and
are known to be functional. I am happy to pass on the IBasic code I
wrote to test the cards and the test results, and was actually
contemplating offering it all on the big auction sometime, but it's a
lot of effort for potentially little return, so if you ar any others
in the group wish to take the 3497A path, I am happy to help at
minimum cost. We obtained the whole lot for a song from a closed
local R&D project and don't expect a large return for it.

Regards,

Ron Wilkinson

Thank you for the informative answers, I can start to trawl the info
and
manuals etc.

I currently have the use of a 34970a and I've become used to it
being on
my bench. Its very flexible and easy to use but but its hire period
finishes shortly. I will have to buy something to replace it but it
really needs to be an earlier unit to make it affordable for home use.

Anyway, thanks again, lots to go on now.

Hi Chris,
All noted. I will give your display board the treatment
over Christmas. We are going to do an overnight trip to Milford Sound [Red
boat cruise], but I hope to find time in between opening presents for you
:-)
The cause of damage to the display board might
be due to insulation failure in the 3 conductor "ribbon"
that connects the EHT and [Shock!, Horror!] storage grids to their
respective circuits. Mine has started to "splat" alarmingly, so I`m going to
replace the ribbon with EHT wire [the Teflon inner from some 1/8 inch Teflon
coax - I`ve tested it to 13kV D.C.], and REAL wire for the grids, before I
power the thing up again.
After I`ve gone over your board [and after I`ve fixed the EHT problem in
my unit !], I will fit your board in my 141T, to check that it goes OK, and
then return it to you good as new.
I`ll keep you posted!
Have a good one Chris, and your family to!
