There might even come a time when early versions of Workstation 4 become free as Workstation 3 is.
But Could be a while as Workstation 4 requires different digits for a particular Serial No.!

Yes!
Good isn't it.
I took advantage of it.

Hi
Are you looking for a ProTrack operating / maintenance manual?
#4
Hi, is there an interest in a suggestion for the ProTrack, manual use. where should I submit.
#5
Am I seeing this correctly? WorkStation for $997?  ;D  :D  :D  :D

The main difference between the two is that the 210 was 20 pins and the 410 was 40 pins. Either one can be used any Tracker but are more useful if you have the power/clock cable that goes between the Switcher and the Tracker. This allows for letting the Tracker rate (ALT mode) to control the Switcher rate. If you do not have the power/clock cable, use a power adapter for the Switcher power and the Switcher's rate control.

Sure sure. Agreed, hi voltage is necessary.
I use a tek 577, ...etc. for hi voltage.
I can see having higher voltage on huntron though, is a plus.
I didn't know 2000 goes up to 60 v.
What do you know, You learn something every day.  And that's the way I like it.

It's very useful to have a test signal with 24 selectable discrete voltages from 200 mVp to 20 Vp. On the other hand, when switching from the tracker 2000 to a ProTruck I would miss the high voltage of the signal (since the voltage of the high impedance range of the Tracker 2000 is 60 Vp).

Sometimes a test signal with high voltage is required to check for an open circuit of a high impedance pin of an IC (in the case of no known good reference IC) or to examine the breakdown voltage of a TVS or a Zener diode.

If you don't see the leads for 410 in pictures it won't have it. I hope it does for your sake, though.

ProTrack and scanner will give you so much more option for diagnostic and testing. 24 Voltages from 0.200 to 20.....and computer connectivity with free WS 3.5 software.
When you get one, make sure it's in good shape and working.

In fact, I ordered an HSR 410 from eBay this morning, I hope that its accessories come with it.

I'm also considering upgrading from the Tracker 2000 to a newer model such as ProTrack with a scanner.
