Connecting a Probe to an Oscilloscope Channel
To protect against ESD damage, always use the following steps when connecting your
probe to the oscilloscope.
1 If the Device Under Test (DUT) is not grounded to the oscilloscope via the AC mains
ground, connect the DUT ground to the oscilloscope ground. An example of a device
having a floating ground would be a battery-powered DUT.
2 Attach the probe head to the DUT.
At this point, the N2800A-series probe amplifier must not be connected to the oscilloscope or
