I have a paper copy of this manual, so if you get stuck with a poor quality PDF let me know & I'll try and help you out.
Which reminds me, I need to get the delayed sweep working again (it doesn't trigger)
Thanks for the offer which I may take you up on if the scan is of poor quality, but so far based on the evidence of tggzzz I have ordered a copy from Artek.
Like Dave, I'm impressed by the build quality of this scope, although gaining access to some parts is a, or at least looks to be a real nightmare. When I opened it up for the first time, it was like it had just come out of the factory, not a spot of dirt or dust anywhere to be seen and is so nice to see a proper linear power supply, none of this smps rubbish. I have a Hameg HM408-1A which has one of those and its a real pain in the arse as there is so little information available for it and I'm having problems with the smps.
If you don't mind, I may ask your advise from time on the HP if you're already familiar with it?
One problem I'm having with it so far is that when testing channel B, the vertical position control works just fine, but also the trigger level also seems to do the same vertical function which I don't recall happening until I used switch cleaner on whatever switches and pots I could gain access to easily. Its as if I had pressed the ALT and TRIG VIEW buttons in but with only a single trace on screen???
