Paul,
I did some searchs on the [email protected]. ?Your questions are on Tekscopes2@...?and i didnt Find anything in there except our conversation. ?You probably are a Member of [email protected]
Look there as there are more results about 2430, 2430a models.
There is pretty good thread about ?the same problem you are dealing with. In the Search box type, ? ?TeK 2430 Saga
then follow thru what they were dealing with. This is a fairly recent thread in Jan 2022.?
It goes thru many steps some good and others had to be redone multiple times. ?You really need a stable DC power supply that can help you go thru some external cal steps voltages just to help during digging thru this. ?Its just +DC voltages not Square waves.?
In my notes I didnt find any other details ?except what I tracked down on the one I was working on. That was the old way, Today I make notes on everything I check and end results. ?I highly recommend you do this so you can look back at what you¡¯ve done.?
If you dont get the extended diagnostics page loaded on bootup. Dont try Self Cal or get concerned about UnCal. ? ?Select channel 1 and then push Aquire button , After that turn the CH1 position CCW then CW to see if you get a trac? on the screen. ??
Did you check voltage test points on th A13 side card?
Again you have picked a scope that takes a fair amount of hours and patience.
