I am looking for a service manual for the Solartron 7061, paper or
.PDF. Does anyone know where I might find one?

Thanks in advance.

Joe,
Didier has PDF copies of the User manual, Service manual and ROM images on 
his manual web site at http://www.ko4bb.com/manuals/index.php.  Just search 
for 7061.

Re: [volt-nuts] Solartron 7061 Service Manual - Does anyone haveone?

Dave,

That is always the first place I look but all I found was the ROM images and
the Operating Manual.  I did not see a Service Manual.  I would love to find
one, assuming one is 'out there' somewhere.

I archived the ROM's in my 7061.  The Earthy Board is the same ROM's as on
Didier's site.  However, my Floating Board uses TI TMS2516's and has version
51AA, 52AA, 53AA, and 54AA firmware.  I can send it to anyone that wants it
and can upload it to Didier's site if useful.

My Floating Board has 24 pin sockets for the TMS2516's but room for a 28 pin
socket and 'pads' to solder to tell it if it is using the '16's' that mine
uses or the '64's' that are used for the 'CA' firmware.  I don't know if
there is any advantage to changing this to use the 'later' firmware.

I would appreciate any info on this that anyone has.

Thanks.

Joe

[volt-nuts] 7061 On Board Clock and Battery

2012-06-24 Thread J. L. Trantham
My 7061 has a single battery installed, B501, a 3.6 V Ni-MH Rechargeable 3
pin battery.  My 7081 has two batteries installed, the same 3.6 V Ni-MH
Rechargeable battery and a ½ AA Lithium Battery that serves as the onboard
clock backup battery.  It is connected with its negative pin to a 47K
resistor to ground and its positive pin to a diode that feeds a connection
that is also fed by another diode from the main power supply.  The common
connection of these diodes feed the clock chip.

 

On my 7061 there is a location, B101 that appears to be for the same type ½
AA Lithium Battery.  The + pin connects to a diode, in a manner similar to
that described above, and the – pin connects to a ‘space’ for a resistor,
R117, with the other end of the resistor going to ground.  Both the battery,
B101, and the resistor, R117, are missing.

 

My questions are:

 

1.  Does anyone have a 7061 with this battery and resistor installed?
2.  If so, what is the value of the resistor, R117, and what type is the
battery?

 

It seems that this would be an easy addition to get a live clock without the
need to restart the clock each time the meter is turned on.  Or, perhaps
there is a reason why this in not a good idea.

 

Thanks in advance.

[volt-nuts] Solartron 7061 Cal Key

2012-06-24 Thread J. L. Trantham
The Cal Key I received for my 7081 also works for the 7061.

 

If anyone needs one, let me know.
