Paul<p>Got time measurements working via manual cursors. Problem was in Stop Comparator card. Did a swap for now, but suspect Q54, will do component level troubleshooting next, but for now happy to get this closer to working.<br>0% zone still not working, which means no voltage measurements, and thus no automatic risetime measurements; that’s next on the list. <br><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/tektronix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tektronix</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/1960s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1960s</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/oscilloscope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oscilloscope</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>electronics</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/testEquipment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>testEquipment</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retroTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retroTech</span></a></p>

Abraham Samma🔬🔭👨‍💻<p>A blast from the past! Found this hidden gem from 1989. Old school stuff that died from lack of standardization amongst ultra-competitive vendors, but you can definitely see the seeds of modern DevOps, IDEs and SDLC practices in every page.

Paul<p>Next on the bench, the Tektronix 567 oscilloscope with possibly the first digital readout facility on any oscilloscope. <br>Swapping a bad tube in the regulator got all the rails up to spec.
