We had ours repaired by California Instruments, the actual manufacturer of the power supply section. Richard Woods Sensormatic Electronics Tyco International

I recently acquired one which powers up but has no output and the front panel display shows 0 volts / amps. Agilent will be happy to charge me $140 just to "look at it". "Best effort" is all they can guarantee on a repair (which would be over and above the $140). Sheesh! Anybody have a owners manual or repair guide / schematics for this model? Thanks, Kurt Michael Taylor wrote: If you think Carley and the rest of HP / Agilent upper management are really more concerned about your thoughts - over short term profits, there are several of us that would like to interest you in some swamp land in Florida and a bridge in New Jersey. Seriously, I have had several instances lately with Agilent that convince me that the old HP is gone and the NEW - "lean-mean Agilent machine" no longer values customer loyalty the way the old HP did. In my case, the way I was treated on several issues would have never occurred under the old HP. The net result is I now consider purchasing test equipment from others - something I would have never done in the past. Welcome to the brave new world of "bean counting" business.

As a loyal HP/Agilent customer, I would expect them to take care of this issue. This is why we buy certain brands of test equipment, and not others. I feel that we "got ripped" on this deal since the 6842A is not a cheap piece of test equipment. Tim Pierce -- Kurt M.
