Re: OT- What's a good substance for corrosion prevention on automotive spade terminals?
Hi Dave,
As noted - grease will address the issue.
Also consider the environment - is it getting wet...the temperature... Suggest adding a heat-shink sleeve over the connection assembly, if you

There have been some posts on the Tek forum, where people claim the options can be enabled through GPIB. See e.g. <http://www1.tek.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4962&start=10

Re: OT- What's a good substance for corrosion prevention on automoti
It might depend upon whether the corrosion is from exposure - corroding from the outside, if you will - or because of some electro-chemical effect (eg, due to dissimilar metals being in contact).

Re: Adding options to TDS scopes
I'd like to throw in my question, since we're on the subject:
On my TDS680B, option 2F (advanced math, FFT) is disabled. AFAIK, this functionality was standard on all but the earliest units. On mine,

Re: Adding options to TDS scopes
Hi Victor,
Adding the HD option requires a hardware controller board. I can send you a binary that will enable 2M if you have the correct chips on the ACQ board. Make sure that the chips are 128K

Re: Adding options to TDS scopes
Great. What i really want to add is the HDD and 2M. Is there any information on how to unlock features on the web, or is this something that Tektronix still charges for?

well.
There are lots of inexpensive "tune-up"

Volvos have a resistor module for the low beam lamps that plugs into one of the fuse/relay panels, and the connection between the two is a notorious spot for corrosion. Last year, the headlights went

Re: Adding options to TDS scopes
Hello, All
So on my TDS744a, are there software locked features as well? The only one
I don't have, I believe is the 1M which I assume requires a memory upgrade.
I have 05, 13, 1F, 2F.
