Precautions Use only as intended. The product is intended to be used only with the compatible Teledyne LeCroy instruments. Using the product and/or the equipment it is connected to in a manner other than specified may impair the protection mechanisms.
Specific information about the input device is programmed into the CA10 so that when the device is connected to the instrument it will correct for the transducer/transformer gain or attenuation and display the result in Ampere units.
We highly recommend using the included heat-shrink tubing to semi-permanently attach the CA10 to the transducer/transformer for which it has been programmed. However, the heat-shrink tubing is not required, and the CA10 will function perfectly without it. Cut the tubing into 1.5" length sleeves before using.

Operator's Manual 3. Slide up the sleeve so that it is flush to the body of the CA10 and completely covers the connector. Apply heat until the wrap snugly encases the connection. 4. If desired, attach a removable label the front of the CA10 case and write the name and/or setup of the attached device.
CA10 ProBus Current Adapter Programming the CA10 When the CA10 is first connected to the instrument, you will be asked if you want to program it. Select Yes to display the CA10 dialog: Enter all the device settings on the dialog, then select Save to Adapter.
R4, R13 and/or R14 terminating resistor be installed in the CA10 to provide a voltage output to the oscilloscope. It is the operator's responsibility to ensure that these resistors are suitably rated for the input current at J3 in the schematic below.
CA10 ProBus Current Adapter Filter Components The locations C7, C8 and L1 can be used to create a filter to remove higher frequency noise that might be present at a current transducer or transformer output. The specific components that might be installed depends on the desired frequency response as well as the instrument and transducer impedance.
CA10 ProBus Current Adapter Opening the CA10 Case To open the CA10 case: 1. Remove the two screws on the connector end of the adapter (shown at bottom of the image below). 2. Remove the front face and pull out the PCA board.
