Yeah, you can't replace all the caps for under $25. I don't think there is much chance of finding a schematic as there were contract units. There must be one of these supplies on the UK ebay site.

Hi: Ridge Quipment (www.ridgeequipment.com) has lots of these PSU for about $25. I keep a few spares for my 16500Cs. They are easy to swap out and impossible to fix. Tom Leedy Clarksburg, MD 20871

Re: possiable power supply fault hp16500c
That may mean a simple repait. Look at the mains rectifiers, internal fuse, caps. And be careful. There should be several hundred volts DC in there. Also, look at "soft start" components, like NTC

X-Y-Z to VGA/USB: 8566/68 XYZ specs
FYI: I've just got specs for 8566/68 SAs, and their X/Y outputs have 75ns risetimes. That is about 5MHz of bandwidth, so any suggestions to use audio or similar low bandwidths will be of no use. The Z

Re: possiable power supply fault hp16500c
As suggested, remove all the cards and see if the supply will come up. It could be something simple. Are you getting an overvoltage or overcurrent light? Just to check, is the voltage switch correctly

Re: possiable power supply fault hp16500c
A spring or bulb desoldering unit is ok for a connection or two, along with Solder-Wick, but it's really not suited for pulling all the componrents off a PCB. You really need something like a Pace if

Re: possiable power supply fault hp16500c
Can you give us some detail as to what test equipment you have access to? Do you have a scope? a DMM? Maybe you could send the supply to someone who has the ability to test and repair it.

Hi Jason, I'm in Cambridge (UK not MA) so only 5 hours away ;-) I'd concour with the other's comments, it's worth working on. First remove all input/output cards and put them away somewhere safe. You

Re: possiable power supply fault hp16500c
Jason, ? You might want to start by identifying all the power supply rails and do some simple resistance readings which might lead you to shorted caps etc.? Service documentation would be my first
