Probe Attenuation Control

Probe attenuation control is dependent on the capability of the probe
attenuation attached to the instrument. The probe attenuation changes the
attenuation factor for the probe. The probe attenuation factor must be set
according to the probe being used to ensure the measurement results
reflect the actual voltage level.
Three scale types of probe attenuation are available:
• 1X : Select when using 1:1 probe or when directly sourcing the signal to
• 10X : Select when using a 10:1 probe.
• 100X: Select when using a 100:1 probe
You can set the probe attenuation factor as follow:
1 Go to individual channel 1 and channel 2 menu by pressing the
2 On page 2/2 of each respective channel's submenu, you can view and
3 Set probe attenuation scale in accordance with the probe you use.
