CP03x/CP03xA Current Probes

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning

The exterior of the probe and cable should be cleaned only using a soft cloth moistened
with water or isopropyl alcohol. The use of abrasive agent, strong detergents or other
solvents may damage the probe.
CAUTION: The probe case is not sealed and should never be immersed in any
fluid.

Calibration Interval

The recommended calibration interval is one year. Adjustment should only be
performed by qualified personnel. (A performance verification procedure is included in
this manual.)

Service Strategy

Defective probes must be returned to a Teledyne LeCroy service facility for diagnosis
and exchange. A defective probe under warranty will be replaced with a factory
refurbished probe. A probe that is not under warranty can be exchanged for a factory
refurbished probe. A modest fee is charged for this service. A defective probe must be
returned in order to receive credit for the probe core.

Troubleshooting

If the probe is not operating properly the problem may be the way in which it is used.
Before assuming the probe is defective, perform the following troubleshooting
procedures:
1. Verify the test instrument is running the required firmware (4.3.0.0 or higher for
CP030/CP031 and 7.7.1.Xa or higher for CP030A/CP031A).
2. If the waveform is inverted, check that the arrow on the slider is in the direction
of the current flow.
3. If there is no signal, check that the slider is closed and locked.
