Probe

This oscilloscope supports normal passive probe, active probe and Tek probe (with
RIGOL T2R1000 active probe adaptor, option). The oscilloscope can automatically
identify the probe type and the probe ratio of the probe currently connected. Press
CH1  Probe to turn on the probe operation menu.
1. Probe Type
You can read the probe type of the probe currently connected as "Nor-Probe",
"Active Probe" or "Tek Probe". Note that when using a 50 Ω "Active Probe", the
"Input Impedance" of the channel is set to "50Ω" automatically; when Tek
probe is used, the oscilloscope will set the input impedance of the channel
automatically according to the model of the probe actually connected.
Normal Probe: such as RP5600A, RP3500A and RP6150A of RIGOL.

Active Probe: such as RP7150 of RIGOL.

Tek Probe: such as P6245 of Tek.
