Hi again,

does anyone possibly also have manuals (or at least detailed specs) for the 1804A 4 channel vertical plug in?

Many thanks
Andi

Re: 524* family counter question

Dave Brown
 

Hi Morris
Without digging through all the details the basic difference is as you describe - the M has a separate transformer/regulator supply for the complete reference-both the oven and the oscillator etc run as long as it is plugged into the AC supply. In early versions of the L the only the oven runs continuously-the oscillator does not.
Not sure re later versions of the L but there was an upgrade kit that put the 10 MHz 10811A OCXO in both the 5245L and the 5248. With that in place I think the oven and the oscillator both run continuously.

The original reference in the 5245L was 1 MHz and the 10811A upgrade kit had an extra divider to get down to 1 MHz.
Don't think there are any other significant differences but would have to look at the books to find out. Don't know the 5248 at all sorry.

I have an L and an M and their handbooks-plus a video amp and a 500 MHz plugin- looking for a 5255 12 GHz plugin (cheap!) I have a 5257A 18GHz xfer osc plugin but it's naffed. Only want the 5255 to be able to log 10 GHz readings over time- with the D/A converter chart recorder combo. I have an EIP 545 but it's BCD output option seems to be pretty rare.

Hi all,

I'm trying to find a manual for my 5245M counter. I do have a manual
for the 5245L and I know the only significant difference between the
two is in the frequency reference.

A friend has offered to lend me the manual for a 5248 counter which
apperently looks identical to the 5245.

Can anyone here educate me about:

1. The difference between the 5245 and 5248
2. Whether the 5248 reference is the same as the one in the 5245M?

Thanks,

Morris

Also, if my program doesn't work, you might have better luck with

Re: XFMR part

 

Dave,

Thanks for looking that info up. This transformer is probably from
something else.

Some extra info that might help identify it is that the terminals come
out of the transformer case in five round "bulkheads" lettered "A" to
"E". The "A" group has four terminals which I think are a pair of
input windings (for 120 or 240, I guess). The next three groups are
all five terminals each and the last group is just two terminals. Each
grouping is numbered sequentially from 1. I've looked at several
different HP scope manuals on the BAMA web site and cannot find this
number but nor can I find any schematics that use a letter-number
terminal identification scheme.

Hi John

?

Just thought you might get a laugh from hearing that I recently paid USD 6200 to a guy in Quebec Canada for 3 planks of wood which were supposed to be an Agilent E4432B Signal generator. It was eBay ¡°bait¡± I should have walked away from.

?

He actually shipped the goods before payment, thinking that would make me feel more comfortable. The shipping time would allow him to collect his money and disappear. Well it worked, he got the money and I got three expensive planks of wood!

?

Pass this around to your friends. If anyone comes across a guy named Konstantinos Tabiris, watch out. His email for what its worth is hns0909@....

?

Now I have to find a more ¡°legitimate¡± seller and in the mean time, hope to recover my money somehow¡­..

Re: HP 10511A Spectrum Generator

From the 1968 catalog-
Input 25-50 MHz(10-75 useful) with 1-3 volts ex 50 ohm source
Output 50 ohms nominal and -19 dBm minimum for any harmonic number between 1 and 10
Which doesn't quite stack up with the quoted output frequency range as 50-500 Mhz but I guess it's near enough!
Intended as an accessory for the 5100A.

Helo,

is there any information about this, i think, a comb generator,
available in this group?
I expect it's a SRD-Based device, but i didn't knew any working
conditions for it, i.e. (max) input power, input frequency range,
output frequency range ( ... rise time of the combs) and so on.
Could you please have a look in your Catalogues (i expext the end of the
sixties) for some data for this unit?

Re: HP 8566B ROMs available

this corrections are depand on the preticuler step attenuator in the instrument so its different from instrument to instrument.

Interesting point.? I?just checked my service manuals, and it appears that there is indeed an?attenuator-correction ROM in the 8566B.? The HP?guys didn't cut any corners on this piece of gear!??It?is a separate part installed on A12, the front-panel keyboard assembly.? (A12U8, to be specific.)?
?
The zipfile I posted contains only the main operating firmware, from the 68000 CPU board.? I'm pretty sure that the images aren't serialized or otherwise tied to the specific instrument they came from.

Hello!

Talking about HP8601As.... I have a couple of them (50 Ohm versions; be sure the one you find is not a 75 Ohm version!) but, unfortunately, one has a bad output power amplifier. I wonder if somebody has a parts unit which could act as a donnor of that part.

Filename is hp8566b_9_29_86.zip . These image files are from my own 8566B

I run a good-sized FTP archive that currently contains, among other things,
EPROM (firmware) images for Tektronix test gear that they no longer make or
support. This is done to provide a repository of image files that one can
use to make a new EPROM if one should fail (yes, they do fail on occasion).

By sending me an archive with 8566B EPROM images in it, John Miles has made
it clear that doing the same for HP stuff would probably be a good idea. So
be it! I welcome contributions for the archive subject to the following
conditions.

(1) Any firmware or software sent should be for equipment that HP/Agilent
no longer manufactures or supports.

(2) If what you're sending is related to current equipment, it must be
publicly available for download from HP/Agilent as well. In other words,
HP/Agilent needs to have given permission, in some way, for its release.

(3) Submissions should be compressed with ZIP or a similar scheme. Files
with .exe extensions will be rejected by my firewall, so choose carefully.
;-) Send submissions to kyrrin (at) bluefeathertech dot com.

(4) My spam filters have been known to be overzealous. If you try to send
me something, and it bounces, try sending me a note (WITHOUT the file
attachment) to kc7gr at qsl dot net (my backup address). Include the bounce
notice, and I will see what I can do about punching a hole in the filters so
you'll be able to get through.

For downloading, the host is ftp.bluefeathertech.com. Log on as 'anonymous'
(minus the quotes), and send your E-mail addy as your password. The path is
/pub/electronics/testgear, and you will see subdirectories below that.

Please keep in mind the following limitations.

(1) Download speed for anonymous logins is capped at 128K, and there's a
limit of five simultaneous logins permitted. This is done to make the most
of a limited bandwidth pipe (my DSL line). If you're not able to get in at
any one time, please try again later.

(2) Certain ISPs and IP ranges may be blocked from accessing the archive at
all, due to ongoing spam and virus transmissions. If you find you cannot
access the archive, drop me a note with details of what you're looking for.
If I have it, I'll send it along.

Thanks much.
