(I wish he hadn't, because while I can always remember the URL, I will never be able to remember the non-standard port number that goes with it when I point people towards the site.) Basically, you have to use ftp://ftp.bluefeathertech.com:50021 now. The readme file talks about the reqiured chips (four 27256s, 200 ns access time or better if I remember correctly.) Despite the note I put in there about 27C256s not working, at least one person was able to use 27C256s successfully, so your mileage may vary! -- john, KE5FX -----Original Message----- |

I wanted to thank you and Agilent for doing such a good job with the old manuals. It is such a treat for those of us who have and still use the HP/Agilent test gear professionally to also be able to acquire and economically maintain the older gear for personal use. Thanks again and please do not stop :-) Didier KO4BB Director of Engineering Crane Co, FWB Division (Keltec) MKawasaki wrote: I have a great update for everyone using the older logic analyzers. |

I have a great update for everyone using the older logic analyzers.
We've posted many of the O/S disk for these products. Here's a quick update: 1650_51A DONE 1650_51B DONE 1652_53B NOT DONE -- should be within next week 166xA_AS DONE 166xC_CS DONE 166xCP DONE 166xE_ES_EP DONE 167xD DONE 167xG DONE 16500A DONE 16500B NOT DONE -- but I will request On the scope side, I was able to find the 5454X O/S for Alexander. I've asked the division to post within the next week on Agilent.com. Please know that the dialogue on this discussion forum was the catalyst for getting this workk done. Thanks for keeping the loyalty to our "old is gold" obsolete equipment.

The same chipset was used by Tektronix in the DM501A DMM. It might be easier to find a DM501A than the chips. Good luck, 73 John Barnes VE3XRY ---------- Original Message ----------------------------------

Re: plastic feet locking strip on HP equipment.
$14 for a plastic strip that is worth about $.15? Youch! One of my 8656A was missing the strip also; I think it's a case of people not being careful when they remove the strips (but I did without problem); don't just rip things out... see how they fit first and learn....

Re: CRT part number in HP 85662 display section for 8566A, 8568B
Hi Guys,
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
I have done this with my CR70, and the CRT in my HP8505A. It works very nicely. I pulled the socket off of the CRT, and used the universal adapter, which is a bunch of micrograbber clips, and connected to the filament, cathode, control grid, and the focus grid for the G2 connection. G2 needs to be the electrode that is closest to the control grid (G1). The filament voltage on the 8505 is some where around 4.5V, and is stated in the manual. As to the other settings, pick any O'scope tube, a 5UP1, should do. You will probably find that the emission is way low. Don't worry too much about that. HP is pretty liberal in what they need. When you are in the manual restore mode, you hold the button down until the beam current drops, and then starts to rise again. Read the manual, it helps. -Chuck Harris John Miles wrote: Hi, Mark -- |

You may find this page interesting: -- the procedure has been done on at least one other 85662A since I wrote it up, with good results. If you get the CR70 working, please post a detailed account of how you did it, and I'll update the page. Depending on what electrodes the CR70 needs to be connected to, the wires in the HV compartment are probably the easiest way to hook it up. There are a couple of different part numbers for the 85662A CRT, since it was produced in at least two completely-different physical form factors. You can search the Agilent site for the service manual .PDF (look for 85662-90086). -- john, KE5FX -----Original Message----- |
CRT part number in HP 85662 display section for 8566A, 8568B
Mark
I have a 85662 with a weak tube.
I finally managed to obtain a Sencore CR70 off eBay. I mean I have bought 3 of the CR70 on eBay over the last 12 months, and the first 2 never turned up! Now cr70's aren't cheap, especially when you are trying to ship them to Australia. I am so over being ripped off by dodgy sellers that know it takes longer to ship surface than buyer protection lasts. Moral of the story, don't ship surface to Australia. Anyway, I digress ;) in all the documentation I have, I can't find the pinouts for the tube. However, I do believe I have an equivalent part number: 170xb31 Could someone verify this for me? Many thanks, Mark VK2HMC |
plastic feet locking strip on HP equipment.
Mark
Can someone please advise me what the plastic strip along the top of
circa 1980's HP equipment is called? It usually covers the screws that hold the front panel on. It also enables other test equipment feet to lock into the groove. The strips come in a 3 different sizes, full size that fits 19" wide chassis, a half width and a quarter width. Why anyone would take these off and lose them is a mysery to me! I am trying to find some of these 'strips', any ideas? Best regards, Mark. |
