Using Probe Heads
To check the MX0100A probe head for any damage
You can use a Digital Multimeter to check the resistance measurement of your
MX0100A probe head. If the resistance measurement between the probe head's tip
and tail is 25.2 kohm, then the probe head is usable,
Figure 22 Resistance measurement for an undamaged MX0100A probe head
For a damaged probe head, the resistance measurement between the MX0100A
probe head tip wire and the center conductor of the SMP connector of the
MX0100A is displayed as Infinite.
