[time-nuts] Auston 2100F

[Stanley Reynolds]

Just got one on Ebay, it was reported with display problems and possibly not working. The display problem was real but it appears to work fine. Thanks Brooke Clarke his quick start for the 2100T works for the 2100F if you substitute "ACQ" key for "Master" key. Fixed 1/2 of the display problem pushing on the backside of the display but need to unsolder the back-light to remove and reset the display I think. Also have the key bounce problem with the tantalum caps, these small problems are very minor. 
 
Don't have the GPIB interface but the chart output looks like it outputs a voltage between 0-15 volts at the start with it tending toward the millivolts volts as it continues. One cell site Rubidium/Quartz standard getting to E10 4.7 to 5.0 overnight have another started today at E10 8. a little higher start than the first. 
 
Looking for some more info on operation and if setting the Time Constant to 3200GRIs is important ? Also have not set the total emission delay as I'm guessing it has no effect except with the 2100T.
