hands-free measurement.

tip onto the probe tip before using.
Used to adjust probe compensation. Access the adjustment
through the opening in the compensation box.
Color codes the probe to the oscilloscope input when more
than one probe is in use. Clip one band around the strain relief
of the probe head and the matching band on the strain relief of
probe output.
Connects the probe ground to small or hard to reach ground
reference points.
The ground collar and short lead connect the probe ground to a
ground reference close to the signal source. The short lead
minimizes aberrations on high-frequency signals caused by the
inductance of the ground lead.
Connects the probe ground to ground reference.
Keeps fingers away from the probe tip for protection against
electric shock.
