Re: 310A scope : serial number oddity ? Ideas ?


 

The serial number location? key is in the 2nd or 3rd page of the Instruction or Service manual. Not all manuals contain all serial number location keys. Some manuals have no serial location key at all. there is every possible permutation and combination you can think of.

It is not uncommon for European built units to have slight circuit and mechanical differences compared to the their USA half brothers. In many cases (but not always) a separate? European manual was printed. At least over here on the west shore of the pond European printed manuals are relatively rare. Most of the digital copies of Tektronix manuals you will find are scanned from the USA version (including 99.8% of the ArtekManuals.com manuals). This is a sheer function of the number of units loose in the wild over here compared to Europe

My 310A has serial number 015467 and was made for or customized for IBM (I think this mostly meant that some special accessories were made available; mine came with a leather carrying case and a probe selector).

What does the zero in the S/N mean as far as here it was built? I might assume that "0" indicates Beaverton.

Also, where do y'all get the information about serial number dating? From the service manual?

Thanks

Hi Gents,

So is the leading " 1 " a valid plant number ?
