Futaba Pulscale DRO Help Requested

[Sheldon JaffeParticipant @sheldonjaffe78377]

Help – I've recently installed an old Futaba Pulscale Model CH2A01 digital readout and scales for the X and Y axes on my Seig C6 lathe. The DRO and scales work beautifully except I don't have an owner's manual so I can't figure out how to change the readouts from mm to inches. The dials on my C6 lathe inn in inches and the dRO is in mm and my mental artithmetic is struggling with swicthing back and forth between the two measuring systems. The CH2A01 display has sixteen DIP switches for setting display parameters but that gives me 65000 possible settings and I don't think I can figure out which settings to change in any sort of reasonable amount of time.

Does any one out there have an operating manual for the Futaba CH2A01 display? I would be happy to purchase the manual or pay costs to have the manual scanned or photocopied.

Thanks

Need futaba Pulscale DRO Manual

Have you tried online at the Futaba site. Most of their manuals for their model radio sets are online.

I've tried Futaba, but the Pulscale DRO systems were sold to Sumtak in 2004, and Sumtak was then sold to Heidenhan and none of them are able to provide anything on the older systems.

Hi Sheldon, there is one for sale on the US Ebay (280925965517), why not give the seller a mail and ask if he's willing to do a copy of the instructions for you, providing he has some of course.
