The new Keithley instruments are really great, when they work alright. But ...
My DMM7510, the SMU 2450 and 2460 all suffer from time to time of several problems.
1. "Blue Screen of Death"
2. Not responsive to any button
I have contacted Keithley / Tektronix Germany but was not offered any help.
There is a hope that this will be fixed with any future FW update but who knows.
I was told by Keithley Germany, that this is a single incident, that only I have these problems and Keithley is not aware that others have these problems too.
The latest FW Version: 1.6.1a is installed
Release Date: Aug 23 2016 - 12:00 am
I have heard from other people here in the eevblog forum, that they have similar issues / problems.
May be we can help Keithley by compiling all problems in this thread and hope they can use it to fix everything in a new FW update.
So, if you have encountered any issues with your new Keithley instrument as well, please post them here.
