[Click the star to watch this topic] LCD Dead, Scopemete

[Wilhelm Duembeg]

Hi,

I got a Fluke 97 Scopemeter, more like a brick right now. The LCD is
not coming up; but power seems to be supply to the chips and also there
is a curren use of about 300ma. I pay $200 for the unit so don't want
to spend to much more on it.

I been trying to connect to it using a homebrew optical to 232
interface. So far no luck. I think I have the wrong IR LEDs apperently
I need 780 to 850 nm wavelenth LEDs and I have no idea what are my IR
LEDs.

I was able to obtain the user manual from flukes web site:
<http://us.fluke.com/usen/support/manuals/> 93,95,97 User Manual.

I am looking for the service manual or any info on debugging the LCD
probelm or just steps to figure out if it working at all.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

BTW, I have a good scanner and can create PDFs if any one has it in
paper media format.

Thanks for your time and cooperation.

- Wilhelm
