SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual important safety considerations. CAUTION:Potential for damage to probe or instrument it is connected to. Attend to the accompanying information to protect against personal injury or damage. Do not proceed until conditions are fully understood and met. 2.2 Working Environment The accessory is intended for indoor use and should be operated in a clean, dry environment.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 2.3 Calibration The recommended calibration interval is one year. Calibration should be only performed by qualified personnel. 2.4 Cleaning The exterior of the probe and cable should be cleaned, using a soft cloth moistened with water. The use of abrasive agents, strong detergents, or other solvents may damage the probe. Always ensure that the input leads are free of debris. To avoid electrical shock, unplug the probe from the scope before cleaning.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual Proper use of the probe depends on careful reading of all instruction and labels. Warning: Any use of the probe in a manner not specified by the manufacturer may impair the probe. This probe should not be directly connected to human subjects or used for patient monitoring. 7 / 19 WWW.SIGLENT.

SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 2. Connect the SAP1000 probe to channel 1 of the oscilloscope. 3. Touch Probe in the C1 menu, and then check the information of the probe, including the probe type, probe SN, bandwidth, resistance, capacitance and attenuation. 4. Set the vertical scale of channel 1 to 2 V/div. 5. Set the offset of channel 1 to zero. 6. Measure the average voltage of channel 1.The measurement should be within ± (1.5% * full screen reading + 10 mV). 7.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual defect is caused by the process or material, not by abuse, negligence, accident, abnormal conditions or operation. SIGLENT shall not be responsible for any defect, damage, or failure caused by any of the following: a) Attempted repairs or installations by personnel other than SIGLENT. b) Connection to incompatible devices/incorrect connection. c) For any damage or malfunction caused by the use of non-SIGLENT probe power supplies. 3.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 4 Introduction The SAP1000 is a compact, high impedance active probe designed to meet today’s increasing demand for measurements on a variety of tests. Thanks to its low input capacitance and high input resistance, the circuit loading is minimized. With the SAPBus interface, the SAP1000 becomes a part of the oscilloscope system. The probe can be controlled from the oscilloscope.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 5 Standard Accessories The SAP1000 probe is shipped with the following standard accessories: Standard Accessory Part Number Quantity Straight Tip 2.74.70.12.003 5 Pogo Tip 2.74.70.12.004 5 L-adapter 2.74.70.12.005 1 Z-Ground 2.74.70.12.006 1 Y-Lead Adapter 2.52.42.11.020 1 50 Right Angle Pin Lead 2.52.42.11.015 1 60 Straight Pin Lead 2.52.42.11.017 1 100 Right Angle Pin Lead 2.52.42.11.018 1 120 Straight Pin Lead 2.52.42.11.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual Straight Tip:The straight tip is rugged and designed for general probing. Pogo Tip:The pogo tip provides z axis compliance. The tip can fit into a socket or via and onto an IC leg. 13 / 19 WWW.SIGLENT.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual L-adapter:This adapter has a socket on one end and a square pin with a right angle on the other to connect to the input or ground socket of the probe body, and may be used for high frequency applications. Z-Ground:The Z-Ground is designed to be attached to either socket of the probe head. The Z-Ground is the highest quality grounding solution and is recommended in high frequency applications.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 50/100 Right Angle Pin Lead :These leads have a socket on one end and a round pin with a right angle on the other to connect to the input or ground socket of the probe body, and may be used for general purpose probing. Colored Clips: These colored clips can be used to distinguish a specific probe from other similar probes being used in the measurement. 15 / 19 WWW.SIGLENT.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 6 Probe Operation The SAP1000 probe is a precision test instrument. Exercise care when handling and storing the probe. Always handle the probe by the probe body or compensation box. Avoid putting excessive strain or exposing the probe cable to sharp bends. ESD Sensitive: The tips of the probes are sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Avoid causing damage to the probe by always following anti-static procedures when using or handling the probe. 6.
SAP1000 Active Probe User Manual 6.2 Connecting the Probe to the Test Circuit To maintain the high-performance capability of the probe in measurement applications, care must be exercised in connecting the probe to the test circuit. Increasing the parasitic capacitance or inductance in the input paths may introduce a “ring” or slow the rise time of fast signals.
