Protek - Their production line is just too fast
mikeselectricstuff:
Is this a new Necroposting record ?
mairo:
My Protek 506 (my first DMM, apat from the $5 that I got at uni) also has this issue. It has not been exposed to any excessive light/heat and I also think is something to do with the chemistry b/w the rober cover and the DMM plastic.
helius:
My Protek 506 (also my first DMM) was bought used without a boot, and is unaffected by this problem (although the cover of the RS232 port was lost long ago). It still works OK but needs to be calibrated.

If you have a good reference you can cal it yourself:
- Take off back cover
- Switch cal switch in top right to ON position
- Power on meter (to volts)
- Apply the required voltage/current if you have it and press "OK"
- If you don't have it press right arrow to skip that step
If it asks for A or mA of course you have to switch to the correct range. I couldn't find a way to go back, only forward.

I know this this thread is old, but does anybody have the original disk with the software & drivers on it they could zip-up and send me?
Please :)
