Tek 2230 Storage does not work.

[David_s5]

I have an Tektronics 2230 Storage scope.

The unit passes diagnostics and I replaced the NV battery, but it does not remember the setting and when switched to Store the traces all disappear.

Any had a simalar problem? Any guidance would be appreciated.

It might be a circuit problem, but here's my two cents worth.
I've seen a lot of problems with the push-button switches on the 2200 series scopes.
Before tearing into the circuitry, try playing with the push-buttons.
Make sure they're locking-in when they're supposed to, and releasing when they're supposed to.
Might not help, but it's isolated the problem for me quite a few times.
good luck.

There is a yahoo group called TekScopes, they are an excellent group of people that are very experienced with Tek Scopes, they helped me with my 475A, along with many others here...

I hope this helps.
