correction are located directly in the Probe settings submenu (→ 142).

Specify whether the value displayed in the Present probe length parameter matches the
actual length of the probe. Based on this input, the device performs a probe length
correction.
• Probe length OK
• Probe length too small
• Probe length too big
• Probe covered
• Manual input
• Probe length unknown
Meaning of the options
• Probe length OK
To be selected if the correct probe length is displayed. A correction is not required. The
device exits the sequence.
• Probe length too small
To be selected if the displayed length is less than the actual probe length. A different
end of probe signal is allocated and the newly calculated length is displayed in the
Present probe length parameter. This procedure has to be repeated until the displayed
value matches the actual length of the probe.
• Probe length too big
To be selected if the displayed length is greater than the actual probe length. A different
end of probe signal is allocated and the newly calculated length is displayed in the
Present probe length parameter. This procedure has to be repeated until the displayed
value matches the actual length of the probe.
• Probe covered
To be selected if the probe is (partially or completely) covered. A probe length correction
is impossible in this case.
• Manual input
To be selected if no automatic probe length correction is to be performed. Instead, the
actual length of the probe must be entered manually in the Present probe length

parameter.
• Probe length unknown
To be selected if the actual probe length is unknown. A probe length correction is
impossible in this case.
