Spare parts, replacement parts and repairs are warranted for 90 days. In exercising its warranty, Teledyne Lecroy, at its option, will either repair or replace any assembly returned within its warranty period to the Customer Service Department or an authorized service center. However, this will be done only if the product is determined by Teledyne LeCroy’s examination to be defective due to workmanship or...

Instruction Manual Safety Instructions This section contains instructions that must be observed to keep this oscilloscope accessory operating in a correct and safe condition. You are required to follow generally accepted safety procedures in addition to the precautions specified in this section. The overall safety of any system incorporating this accessory is the responsibility of the assembler of the system.
To avoid short circuits and accidents that could result in injury or death, use the CP031 current probe only with conductors carrying 300 V or less. ...
The probe can be used with a WaveSurfer, WaveRunner 6000, or WavePro 7000 series oscilloscope with firmware 4.3.0.0 or higher. With the ProBus interface, the CP031 becomes an integral part of the oscilloscope. The bandwidth limit, auto zero and degauss functions are all controlled from the oscilloscope’s graphical user interface.
To use the CP031 with a WaveMaster scope, the AP-1M impedance adapter is required. Connecting the Probe to the Test Circuit The CP031 has been designed with a movable split core, eliminating the need to break the conductor for the core to slip around the conductor.
Turning the VOLTS/DIV knob will control the oscilloscope’s scale factor to give full dynamic range from 20 mA/div to 50 A/div. The CP031 probe dialog (a tab behind the channel setup dialog) allows for the selection of the probe’s coupling (DC, Grounded or AC), AUTO ZERO, DEGAUSS PROBE and Probe BWL functions, limiting the system bandwidth to 20 MHz or maximum bandwidth (BWL Off).
(A Performance Verification / Adjustment procedure is included in this manual.) Service Strategy Defective probes must be returned to a Teledyne Lecroy service facility for diagnosis and exchange. A defective probe under warranty will be replaced with a factory refurbished probe. A probe that is not under warranty can be exchanged for a factory refurbished probe.
5. Package the probe case in a cardboard shipping box with adequate padding to avoid damage in transit. 6. Mark the outside of the box with the shipping address given to you by the Teledyne Lecroy representative; be sure to add the following: •...
CP031 Current Probe Performance Verification This procedure can be used to verify the warranted characteristics of the CP031 Current Probe. The recommended calibration interval for the model CP031 Current Probe is one year. The complete performance verification procedure should be performed as the first step of annual calibration.
1. Connect the CP031 to the channel 1 input of the oscilloscope and completely close the probe slider. 2. Turn the oscilloscope on and allow at least 30 minutes warmup time for the CP031 and test equipment before performing the Verification Procedure.
6. With the CP031 removed from any signal and the slider returned to the LOCKED position, degauss the probe by pressing the DEGAUSS button (located in the CP031 dialog), then OK. 7. Open the CP031 slider and position the probe input around the 100 Turn loop. Close and LOCK the slider.
Instruction Manual Adjustment Procedure This procedure can be used to adjust the warranted characteristics of the CP031 Current Probe. This procedure should be used if a parameter measured in the Performance Verification Procedure is outside of the specification limits. Adjustment should only be performed by qualified personnel.
2. Connect the CP031 compensation board to the channel 1 input of the oscilloscope through the ProBUS extension cable, and completely close the probe slider. 3. Turn the oscilloscope on and allow at least 30 minutes warmup time for the CP031 and test equipment before performing the Verification Procedure.

6. With the CP031 removed from any signal and the slider returned to the LOCKED position, degauss the probe by touching DEGAUSS (on the CP031 dialog), then OK. 7. Open the CP031 slider and position the probe input around the 100 Turn loop. Close and LOCK the slider.
