My MSO5204 scope stops booting at the BIOS screen and waits for the user to press F1. I suspect the battery that backs up the BIOS is dead.Can you tell me the battery type and how to access it?
The battery should be on the COM-E Carrier board. The battery should be a CR2032/HF1N. (with solder tabs)See the service manual at the link below for instrument modules and disassembly. https://www.tek.com/en/oscilloscope/dpo70000-mso70000-manual-6
And of course you can send the MSO5204 into our factory service department and they can do the work.To set up a repair RMA (model and serial number)call 1-800-833-9200 opt 2. Or send an email to rmarequest@tektronix.comhttps://www.tek.com/en/services/repair/mytek_rma_request
