HP 4141 manuals
« on: December 06, 2022, 06:05:52 pm »
Picked up a HP 4141 today that was going cheap on eBay. For those that have never heard of it, it has 4 SMUs to force/measure current and voltage, plus 2 voltage sources and 2 voltage measurement units. It's in pristine condition and powers on and passes self test, but I have no manuals for it (it needs to be controlled via the IEEE488 bus). Does anyone know where I can find them? In particular the programming manual.
Thanks.

I did not look specifically for your manual but this person has lots of good copies of HP and other manuals

Possibly this can help:

Just to add a +1 for Artek - I've been very satisfied with the 2 or 3 manuals that I've purchased and downloaded from them. They were all professional quality reproductions from originals scanned by themselves.

I have also ordered a few manuals from Artek.  They are much better than any free manuals I have downloaded from the web.
The schematics, when they are available. are especially more clear from Artek

I went through this exercise a few years ago, looking for a service manual for it. Artek doesn't have manuals for the 4141B. The only manual I found then is the one found in the link you posted.
Now there are now several links like this one on xdevs, with probably the same manual: https://xdevs.com/doc/HP_Agilent_Keysight/HP%204142B%20Operation%20with%20Plug-Ins.pdf
Still have not found a service manual.
