RTF - Probe Control Board
The probe control board (RTF) recognizes different probe types and
switches between the Probe Connectors (3 DLP-Connectors, 1 CW-
Connector) as required. The board contains:
 One optional CW-Probe Connector
 Three 408 pin Probe-Connectors
 One 408pin Dummy-Probe Connector
 Probe Select Relays
 Probe Recognition
RSE - Pencil Probe Board (optional)
CW scanning is optional on the Voluson E10. This adapter board is for
the connection of CW pencil probes is required for CW-Option.
