To specify the probe attenuation

For correct measurements, you must match the oscilloscope's probe
attenuation factor settings with the attenuation factors of the probes being
used.
The probe attenuation factor setting changes the vertical scaling of the
oscilloscope so that the measurement results reflect the actual voltage
levels at the probe tip.
