[Amateur-repairs] Re: Precision test equipment

 

Thank you guys...

The Model Num is 22-163. No english suport from RS.

Yeah, its a lot 'o current to draw overnight.

I was thinking of grabing an old 3v wall wart to power this thing; its paid for and why knot? But if I do that, why not just use the HP 400D ???? ??

Anyways, I hate tossing stuff if it can be fixed. I guess i'll buy a Fluke or grab a Simpson 260.

Funny.

I thought about that... but I still had to say WHY I was making essentially blank post.

Now this is the REAL test. Replying from my web browser. Let me cross my fingers.

Re: [Amateur-repairs] Precision test equipment

 

Put an amp meter inline with the batts to see what current is being drawn
off while your not using it.

Must be quite a draw to deaden them overnight.

Sounds like you have a bad part in the meter somewhere.

What meter is it?

Re: [Amateur-repairs] Precision test equipment

does it have a "soft" switch, or a switch that actually disconnects the
batteries?
if it has a soft switch, then check the switching electronics....usually
it's a resistor that needs to be changed in value, a leaky transistor can
do it too.
If it's not a soft switch, then see if there is an electrolytic cap across
the battery connections-if so, it may be leaky.
Check for this, even if it IS using a soft switch-some of them do this too.
Another thought:how clean is the PC board.....flux and other junk on the
board, mixed with moisture could cause the same problem.

[7x10minilathe] OT: Tips for Hawaii Screening Test

 

When you move to Hawaii, it may be important to get on public assistance like 80% of Hawaiins. Because of the expense of paradise, you may need to belly up to that trough. I don't want to hear your deluded whining about self-reliance or personal values. There is medication for that, so listen up darlings.

1. You need an interesting and semi-believable victim act. IF you were in the military you can make up all sorts of things. Your boat hit a mine and you were thrown into a bulk-head, suffering brain damage. Brain damage is good because it has a bit of awe about it, and you can get away with all sorts of behavior, like hugging cute secerataries or whippig out a mj pipe during the interview to quell your pain. If U werent in the army, you can say your bike had a head-on with a suv full of crazed, laughing teen-agers.
These are just examples.The point is to interest the bureaucrat interviewing you for benefits and arouse sympathy so they can spend the public's money on you.

2. You must convince them that you are a thoroughly useless human being, never having done anything with any social value whatsoever. You might mention some pathetic activity like grooming your pet rat or playing scrabble with only four letter words. Raiding dumpsters a possibility, but its a little too ambitious, unless you mention that other dumpster divers stole your cans.

3. If the interviewer's name is Anastasia, you can say that is your favorite name and you named your kid that, etc. This is not about you, dummy, or your pathetic life. The bureaucat has a boring job, and you should make him feell good. You are there to be an amusing clown in the new state. Just dont be too silly about it, until you mention the brain damage, then anything goes.

So that's it. Forget your pathetic attempts to do something, as we dont want to hear your ridiculous efforts to do anything. That kind of ambition makes us look bad and just who do you think you are? You can do prostitution or dealing later, but I don't want to hear that you are useful, unless it was before the brain damage.

Martin,
I will do two repllies to see if it works.  One will be labled Endless c*ap.  The other will have the OT in the subject. This is the one without OT.  If you don't see the other one in 5 min then it probably works.

Martin,

The best way to get rid of the OT stuff is to do the following:
1. On top left of the web page is an Options label with a down arrow next to it, click "Options";
2. It will give you a pull down screen, one of the choices is mail options, click "mail options";
3. It will now give you a new Sub-folder with OPTIONS as a choice, on the OPTIONS sub-folder on the left side will be a list of choices, click "filter";
4. In the middle column that comes up, there is an ADD button, click the "ADD" button;
5. This will open a third column, at the top is asks for Filter Name, enter "OT STUFF";
6. Further down is a part that has "Subject Contains" with a box after "Contains", in the box enter "OT";
7. Further on down is a sentence that says "Then deliver the email to the following folder", below is a drop down box that allows you to send the OT STUFF to where ever you would like. Pick the destination of your choice;
8. Now go back to the second column where the "ADD" button is from step 4 and click "ADD" button;
9. You have now filtered out the OT messages that are driving you craaaazzzyyyyy!!!!!!!

Hope this helps,
Bob

ps When I first joined this group, I also wondered about all the OT stuff, it is apparently in the 7x10 group charter to stimulate different topics and if I didn't like it to go to 7X12 group where they keep a tight control over what is posted instead of a more free group like the 7x10. I decided to jump in and just enjoy the topics as it is like having to deal with actual people in a real machine shop, thereby enhancing the real machining experience. However, if you don't like it, but you still want the base knowledge just use the above steps to keep you out of the fray. If you ask people to just put OT in the Subject line so you don't have to look at it, they are usually polite enough to comply. Most of all, Enjoy your hobby, that is what I try to do.

Hi Listmates

Is there any way of stopping all this OT stuff??? I am sick to death of deleting unwanted OT drivel when all I want to read is 7x10 chat.

I reject any assertions claiming that I lack tolerance. This group is simply for 7x10 and related machines and that's it. At least, I hope it is.
