Hello all,
I recently got my hands on an HP 8566B Spectrum Analyzer.
Unfortunately it would appear the deal was too good to be true, as the instrument appears non-functional.
I've attempted to follow the troubleshooting guide, but I'm not sure where to go now with the information I have.
When powering, the CHECK INST I and II lights should go on, then power off.
Currently they never turn on in the first place, remaining off the whole time.
I think this would implicate something to do with the CPU board.
Accordingly the display unit and GPIB interfaces are unresponsive as well.
I haven't found any part of the manual that describes what to do continuing from here.
I have attempted reseating all the boards I can.
The regulated voltage lines all seem okay, unregulated are generally a little further out but within what I guess to be reasonable.
If anyone knows what I ought to try next I would appreciate it.
