How to Set the Probe Attenuation Coefficient

The probe has several attenuation coefficients, which will influence the vertical scale
factor of the oscilloscope.
To change or check the probe attenuation coefficient in the menu of oscilloscope:
(1) Press the function menu button of the used channels (CH1 MENU or CH2
MENU).
(2) Press H3 button to display the Probe menu; press the F1 button to select Attenu.
In the menu at the left of the screen, turn the M knob to select the proper value
corresponding to the probe.
This setting will be valid all the time before it is changed again.
Caution: The default attenuation coefficient of the probe on the instrument is
preset to 10X.
Make sure that the set value of the attenuation switch in the probe is
the same as the menu selection of the probe attenuation coefficient in
the oscilloscope.
The set values of the probe switch are 1X and 10X (see Figure 4-9).
