the circuit with approximately the same source impedance.
The probes may be stacked on one top of another during usage to conserve space. Since
the probe body generates heat, and the stacking reduces cooling, it is recommended that
ambient temperatures not exceed 30 degrees C while stacked probes are in operation. The
exceptional CMRR performance should prevent interference between probes when they are
stacked, but take care to separate the probe leads during operation.
WARNING. To avoid electric shock or fire, keep the probe body and output cable
away from the circuits being measured, as they cannot provide adequate protection
if they come in contact with electrical sources.

Operating with an Oscilloscope

When the probe is connected to a Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscope, the displayed scale factor
and measurement values will be adjusted to account for the effective gain of the probe.
The probe's internal attenuation is shown on the Probe dialog, which is added to the
oscilloscope's input channel dialogs when a probe is detected.
Probe Volts/Div and Attenuation
The front panel Volts/Div knob controls the oscilloscope's scale factor and the probe's
internal attenuation to give full available dynamic range. Some transition of the scale factor
will result in a change of attenuation.
