Host Instrument Firmware

Some instruments may require a ﬁrmwa re upgrade to supp ort full functionality of the TDP0500 and TDP1000 probes. Instruments

power-cycle t he instrument to restore normal instrument operation. The following table lists the required versions of instrument

ﬁrmware.

To check the ﬁrmware version on Windows-based instruments, from the menu bar, click Help/About TekScope. On

Linux-based instruments, press the Utilities button on the front panel. If you need to upgrade your instrument ﬁrmware, go to

If one of the Range LEDs does not remain lit after you connect the probe, an internal pro be diagnostic fault exists. Disconnect and

reconnect the probe to restart the power-on diagnostic sequence. If the symptoms continue, the probe is defective, and mu st
