AutoProbe
Most Agilent single- ended active, differential, and current probes are
Interface
compatible with the AutoProbe interface. Active probes that do not have
their own external power supply require substantial power from the
AutoProbe interface.
In the following tables, for AutoProbe interface compatible probes,
"Quantity Supported" indicates the maximum number of each type of
active probe that can be connected to the oscilloscope.
If too much current is drawn from the AutoProbe interface, an error
message will be displayed, indicating that you must momentarily
disconnect all probes to reset the AutoProbe interface, then connect only
the supported quantity of active probes.

Pollution Degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs.
The pollution has no influence. Example: A clean room or climate controlled
office environment.
Pollution Degree 2. Normally only dry non-conductive pollution occurs.
Occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation may occur.
Example: General indoor environment.
Pollution Degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to condensation which is
expected. Example: Sheltered outdoor environment.
