Making Measurements

Ensure that the probe is being used within its input operating range. Use of the probe outside of its
operating range may result in damage to the probe.
Connect the power supply to probe.
Connect the output BNC connector of the probe to the input BNC connector on the oscilloscope
using the supplied BNC to BNC cable.
Set the oscilloscope input impedance to 50Ω . If the oscilloscope does not have a 50Ω input impedance
capability then connect the supplied 50Ω Feedthrough Termination between the BNC cable and the
oscilloscope at the oscilloscope end. Use the oscilloscope high input impedance 1 MΩ setting on
the oscilloscope's input when making measurements using the external 50Ω Feedthrough
Termination.
Set the oscilloscope's input coupling to DC and channel attenuation ratio to 10:1 for correct
scaling.
With the probe inputs shorted together, adjust the oscilloscope's trace to the zero position using the
offset adjustment 2 shown on page 2. Connect the probe's output BNC connector to the
oscilloscope's input BNC connector using a BNC to BNC cable.
Connect the probe to the circuit under test and make measurements. The main body of the probe
should be kept away from high voltage pulse circuits to minimize interferance.
After the test remove the probe from the circuit under test.
If measuring a low frequency waveform in a circuit containing high frequency noise components,
the measurement result might be influenced by the high frequency noise components. Consider
