Tony Crady of Automated Industrial Electronics Corporation acquired the
"Measurements" generator line many years ago. I bought one from him and he
may have the info that you need or might be able to tell you where to find
the info. His contact info is:
Automated Industrial Electronics Corporation
141 Fulmer Street, Batesburg, SC 29006
(803) 532-9256
Good luck,
Harold Kinley
