Does anyone have schematics for the Keithley 2001 multimeter? I received one today with a blown up transformer. I'd like to have a look at the automatic AC input voltage selection circuit before replacing the transformer.

Thanks.

Randy.

I contacted Keithley regarding the schematic. It's itemised in the contents
of one of the manuals, or referred to in its text, but those pages of the
manual are missing. Keithley said it's not available. Any ideas anyone?

I just got the same answer from Keithley today: "We no longer provide schematics for our equipment." Bummer.

Also, in case anyone was curious, the new transformer for the 2001 is going to cost $157 USD.

It's really a shame...I was reading through the manual for the Tek 131
current probe amplifier yesterday. Not only do they provide detailed
part listings and schematics on top of the troubleshooting steps, they
also provide directions on how to modify it to work as a general purpose
voltage amp! "...solder the resistor here..."

Danaher just bought out Keithley (and Tektronix, Fluke, and others in the
past).

They are ONLY interested in selling new stuff. I've never seen a more
money-grubbing outfit. I got screwed as a Tek shareholder.

FWIW,

Not to hijack a thread or get off topic, but that's why we love the older Tek gear. Their documentation was first rate. That voluminous and detailed documentation did come back to bite them, though.

I read story in " Winning with people: The first 40 years of Tektronix" about the Tek people discovering counterfeit scopes that the military (Navy?) was having built. As part of their contract to supply scopes they had to supply documentation that amounted to a detailed build manual for the product. Once the military customer had the documentation they shopped it around to contract manufacturers and found somebody who would build the scopes to print for, presumably, a lower price than the genuine Tek unit.

Looks like there is such a thing as too much information :)

It's really a shame...I was reading through the manual for the Tek 131
current probe amplifier yesterday. Not only do they provide detailed
part listings and schematics on top of the troubleshooting steps, they
also provide directions on how to modify it to work as a general purpose
voltage amp! "...solder the resistor here..."

Also, in case anyone was curious, the new transformer for the 2001 is going to cost $157 USD.

I contacted Keithley regarding the
schematic. It's itemised in the contents of one of the
manuals, or referred to in its text, but those pages of the
manual are missing. Keithley said it's not available. Any
ideas anyone?

True.

A friend of mine set up a plant to clone Tek scopes for a military
contract. Tek caught on and drilled a couple of holes in the chassis that
were unused. The cloner reproduced the scope including those holes. Tek
sued and won. This was in the early to mid 1960s.

Best,
