Title: Soltek 8K43 Oscillograph Manual
Post by: CatalinaWOW on April 11, 2017, 04:54:35 pm
I bought a Soltek 8K43 Oscillograph in a lot of surplus electronics.  I know that oscillographs are slightly more outdated than dinosaurs, but they played a big role in my early career and wouldn't mind having this one functioning.  This one must have been one of the last of the breed since it is microprocessor controlled and has dot matrix annotations on the output.  The user interface is obscure, but I have figured out some of the simple stuff like setting the clock/calendar, setting chart speed and loading paper, but have been stumped beyond that, continually getting error messages in the display.

Does anyone have a user manual for this or other similar Soltek product that might get me over the hump?

If not, it is not a total loss.  This makes the largest, heaviest, coolest looking digital clock on the planet.
