Hi,

I have the Originals including Section 5.  34 Pages including a Page 5-15A and 5-15B. Till now I wasn't aware of the fact that the TekWiki Copies were incomplete.

I have both manual parts for the CG5011.  Here's part 1.  I can't attach part 2 because the file size is too large.  But if you give me your email via DM I can send it to you.

I also did a video series on my YT channel repairing mine which includes the following:

-Fixing the current loop
-Replacing the dual encoder (variable shaft broke off) with two separate encoders.
-Going down a rabbit hole chasing an issue with the DC amplitude modes.

Excellent piece of equipment and fairly easy to calibrate.
