Attenuation option and select 10X. Connect
the TPP0101/TPP0201 probe to channel 1 o n
the oscilloscope. If you use the probe hook-tip,
ensure a proper connection by firmly inser ting the
tip onto the probe.

Prob
e Attenuation Setting
Probes are available with various attenuation factors which affect the vertical
scale of the signal. The Probe Check Wizard verifies that the attenuation factor
in
the oscilloscope matches the probe.
As an alternative m ethod to Probe Check, you can manually select the factor
th
at matches the attenuation of your probe. For example, to match a probe set

option, and select 10X.
NOTE. The default setting for the Attenuation option is 10X.
