3.Primary User Guide Oscilloscope Inspection 1. Set the Switch in the Oscilloscope Probe as 10X and Connect the Oscilloscope with CH1 Channel. Align the slot in the probe with the plug in the CH1 connector BNC, and then tighten the probe with rotating it to the right side. Connect the probe tip and the ground clamp to the connector of the probe compensator.
3.Primary User Guide 1、 Set the attenuation coefficient of the probe in the menu as 10X and that of the switch in the probe as 10X (see "How to Implement the Probe Compensation" on P13), and connect the probe with the CH1 channel. If a probe hook tip is used, ensure that it keeps in close touch with the probe.
3.Primary User Guide (1) Click the channel information display bar on the bottom left of the screen (CH1 Channel, CH2 Channel, CH3 Channel or CH4 Channel). (2) Select Probe Attenu (1X,10X or other custom probe magnifications) in the displayed channel setting window. The setting will remain in effect until changed again after selection.
3.Primary User Guide Figure 3-8: Finger Guard Warning: To avoid electric shock, always keep your finger behind the safety guard ring of the probe during the operation. To protect you from suffering from the electric shock, do not touch any metal part of the probe tip when it is connected to the power supply.
