Instructor's Guide Trainer Device 6F13

YEAR: 1971
ITEM: Manual/User's Guide
COMPANY: Compumedic Sciences Inc.
COUNTRY: USA
IN OUR COLLECTION: Yes

This manual is for a 1971 analog computer.

The "Instructor's Guide: Analog Computer Trainer Device 6F13" was included with the 6F13 analog computer obtained by Dr. Pearson. Most of it has been scanned as of 10-19-2025. The manual was scanned in two parts (see below).

On the title page is the warning, "Each transmittal of this document outside of the Department of Defense must have approval of the Commanding Officer, Naval Training Device Center (Code 4231), Orlando, Florida 32813." We are hoping the warning no longer applies...but read this at your risk!

This publishers of this manual (the Naval Training Device Center - NAVTRADEVCEN) are now known as the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD). I have read that employment at this facility often requires SECRET or even TOP SECRET clearance.

If you are in need of the pages not yet scanned, please contact us and make a request.

Part One: Main Section

Part Two: Appendix (includes operating instructions)
