Page 4: Use A Static-Safe Work Station
Figure 1 Static-Safe Work Station Many scopes including Keysight’s 90000X series have a front-panel ground socket. You can plug the wrist strap into the ground socket as seen in the following picture. N7000/1/2/3A InfiniiMax III+ Handling Guide... - Page 5 Use a Static-Safe Work Station Figure 2 Wrist Strap Connected to Oscilloscope Ground Socket The static-safe work station shown in Figure 1 uses two types of ESD protection: • Conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination. • Conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination. Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection.

It can be damaged if excessive force is applied to the probe tip. This damage is considered to be abuse and will void the warranty when verified by Keysight Technologies service professionals. When the probe amplifier is not in use, store it in the probe case. Coil the probe cable with these tips in mind: •... - Page 10 Tack-Putty Keysight recommends the use of tack putty for securing both probe heads and amplifiers. Tack putty can be ordered using part number N5439-65201. Wrap a small amount of tack-putty around your probe head cables, taking care to not pinch them.
- Page 11 Probing a DUT Similar techniques can be used to secure probe amplifiers where you apply some tack-putty to the underside of the probe amplifier body and attach it to a rigid body near your DUT. Figure 6 Probe Secured Using Tack Putty You can also use putty with a positioner, such as the N2787A as shown in the following figure.
- Page 12 Probing a DUT Low-temperature Hot Glue You can also use low-temperature hot glue to secure cables. Only use low-temperature hot glue. To remove the hot glue, warm it with a heat gun set CAUTION on low. Only heat the hot glue enough to remove it. Do not use the hot glue on the probe head (PC board or tip leads).
