    Feckwhit esteemed customer just let the magick smoke out of a function generator by connecting its output to a powersupply.

    Deeply deeply stupid.

    Ho hum.

    I'm about to reapply power to see if I've fixed it or not.

    There may be more smoke shortly.

      A fine evening to all,
      And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

          To the generator or the customer?

                  Right, I hereby decree that dinner's ready, because I'm starving and don't want to wait any longer

                      99% fixed.

                      No more smoke as yet.

                      Feckwhit managed to melt one of the switches that controls the output resistance.

                      Instead of being 600 ohm and 50 ohm, it's now 50 ohm and infinity.

                      I think a judicious bodge will cure that tomorrow.
