To construct the test connector (for use with MSO models only)
Agilent 4000 X-Series oscilloscopes that have digital
channels enabled require the test connector described below.
Follow the steps to build the test connector.
1 Obtain a BNC connector and an 8-by-2 section of Berg
strip. A longer strip can be cut to length using wire
cutters.
2 On one side of the Berg strip, solder a jumper wire to all
of the pins (shown in Figure 1 on page 26).
3 On the other side of the Berg strip, solder another jumper
wire to all of the pins.
4 Solder the center of the BNC connector to a center pin on
one of the rows on the Berg strip.
5 Solder the ground tab of the BNC connector to a center
pin on the other row on the Berg strip.
