[volt-nuts] Solartron 7071 beeping about twice a second

[David C. Partridge]

And just to make a "monkeys uncle" out me, it just started working after reconnecting the keyboard for the nth time.

Confused ... You bet, especially as I cannot now provoke the fault (except by holding down the DIG-FILT key or shorting pins 5 and 6).

Further information:

Shorting pins 5 and 6 of PL2 causes the same symptoms, as does pressing and holding the DIG FILT key on another meter.

The odd thing is though that an ohms test between 5 and 6 of keyboard is OC - which does not make sense to me?
