Someone is sending me one of these, presumed working, but without manuals or leads.

Does anyone know where I can find a manual (google doesn't :().

Has anyone used one of these things?

The mini lab 603B is a signal generator, power supply etc, not an oscilloscope.

But thanks for looking anyway :)

I noticed that Test-Equipment-Auctions (an eBay seller) sold one some time back - and offered a manual on CD with the unit. They might be willing to sell you just a copy of the manual. They're located in Australia. Their contact info was posted - but it might look too much like spam to post up here.

Yep, we came to an agreement for a pdf copy of the manual. Thanks for the tip Militoy

Some of the controls seem a little off. The manual has a full circuit diagram, parts list and board layout, so repairs will be as convenient as they're ever likely to be.

I'm glad they were able to help you. I noticed after posting, that they seem to still have more of the same model for sale. I've never seen anything like these - are they made in Australia?

Yes they were.

They were clearly made for "educational" use, the manual having "exercises" such as how to make a schmitt trigger, an AM transmitter etc.

I'm planning to use it to make breadboarding a little more convenient.

The only drawback is that it's a lot larger than I imagined :)

Steve, I have a model 603 (not 603B).

Can you give me or sell me a copy of the manual please.

I don't mind measuring voltages/waveforms in mine if ever you get a tricky fault in yours.

I believe I uploaded them to http://ebaman.com/.

Search for "BWD 603"

If you have any problems, PM me your email address and I'll email them to you.

Thanks Steve, what a super website.

I have had a huge cleanup but I'll see what's useful and upload any manuals.
