HVD3000 / HVD3000A High-Voltage Differential Probes
The ProBus interface makes the probe an integral part of the oscilloscope. Power is
provided to the probe through the interface, so there is no need for a separate power supply
or batteries. Attenuation may be either automatically selected based on the oscilloscope
gain range (V/div) setting, with the offset adjust unified with that of the oscilloscope, or
locked to the maximum attenuation setting.
Maximum offset depends on the V/div setting and the oscilloscope model. In general,
Teledyne LeCroy 12-bit High Resolution Oscilloscopes (HRO) and HD4096 High Definition
Oscilloscopes (HDO) provide the most offset capability over the widest range of V/div
settings.
Compatibility
HVD3000 and HVD3000A probes are compatible with most Teledyne LeCroy MAUI
oscilloscopes equipped with the ProBus interface. See the HVD3000 product page on our
website for all compatible oscilloscope models.
Some legacy oscilloscopes, such as WavePro 7000A and WaveSurfer XS, can be made
compatible with HVD3000 probes if upgraded to the Windows XP Professional operating
system and requisite firmware. Contact your regional service center regarding upgrades.
Required Firmware
Proper functioning of the HVD3000 and HVD3000A probes requires a minimum version of
the XStreamDSO™ firmware to be installed on the oscilloscope:
