Datron 1061A Calibration key
« on: September 14, 2023, 07:22:40 pm »
Hello support group,

Does anyone in the UK have a spare Datron 1061A calibration key I could purchase from them please before I rip the switch out and replace.

Many thanks

Check out Usagi Electric or Lockpicking Lawyer for those totally worthless keyswitch defeats. A lockpick is more fun than a genuine key.

it´s maybe the same like in the Datron 4000/4200 calibrators: a normal Yale DC751 - as you are in UK it should be cheap as a test...

I can confirm that the cal key is the same for all the multimeters and the 4700 calibrator.

I actually had a key that was close, it went into the lock OK so I pulled the switch apart to figure out where to file the key to get it to work, from that I had a few more cut for my devices, I covered it in a video of mine on a 1062 if I remember rightly.

attached is a photo of the key I found on the forum some time ago, it is almost the same.

My key is an CH751, and the ones I had cut are a ilco N54G type.

Here is the video where I pull the lock apart:
