I have a 2465B that passes all calibration routines except parametric measurements CAL 09 steps 2 and 3 which always indicate "LIMIT". All of the rest of the CAL 09 steps pass. CAL routines 01, 02, 03 have been been repeated a couple of times with no problems. The scope functions fine and seems to perform parametric measurements correctly.
Has anyone seen this problem before and have a fix? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Regards, George Kerber
download the servicemanual of the 2465B from
and follow the cal. procedure. This helped with my tek2465B

Andreas, That is exactly what I did. The entire cal procedure has been perfomed a couple of times. Still get "LIMIT" on CAL 09 steps 2 & 3. Everything else passes and the scope appears to function normally, except at startup it fails test 04 code 02 which means one or more cal coefficients is out of limits. I assume this is from CAL 09 steps 2 & 3. George
..snippety..
George, okay, when you can't complete by simply caloibrating: this says that your scope can't be cal'd any more due to a hardware problem on the board (most often input amp chips partly defective/out of specs).
change these chips. But be warned: Spares are ahrd to get.
