Setting the probe damping factor
The probe has several probe damping factors that affect the vertical scaling factor of the oscilloscope.
If the set probe attenuation factor is to be changed or checked, press the function menu key for the respective
channel and then the selection key corresponding to the probe until the correct value is displayed.
This setting remains valid until it is changed again.
Note: The damping factor of the probe in the menu is preset to 10X at the factory.
Make sure that the value set on the attenuation switch of the probe corresponds to the
attenuation value set on the oscilloscope.
The values that can be set with the switch on the probe are 1 X and 10X (see picture).
Note: When the
attenuator switch is set to 1X, the
probe limits the bandwidth of the oscilloscope to 5 MHz. You must set the switch to 10X if you
want to use the entire bandwidth of the oscilloscope.
Safety instructions for the use of the scanner head
The handle protection ring around the probe handle prevents it from accidentally reaching over or slipping
off and thus from touching the possibly live metal parts (see Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht
gefunden werden.. )
Handle protection
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, always keep your fingers behind the safety
protection ring of the probe.
To protect you from electric shock, do not touch any conductive metal parts
of the probe tip when it is connected to a power source.
Before taking any measurements, always connect the probe to the
oscilloscope first and then connect the earth terminal to the housing of the
DUT.
