DESCRIPTION
The CP6000 family of AC/DC current probes enables oscilloscope instruments to
display AC, DC, and AC+DC current measurements up to 100 amps peak
(CP6220) and frequencies up to 1.5 MHz (CP6990). Using supplied BNC to
Banana plug adapter (CT3956) the current probes will work with most modern
Digital Multimeter (DMM).

CURRENT FLOW SYMBOL
Arrow on current jaws shows the probe’s polarity convention for measuring
current flowing from positive to negative.
DC ZERO ADJUST
Rotate to adjust the probe output to zero when there is no current present. It may
also be used to offset a DC signal component. Zeroing is not needed for AC
measurements unless your instrument cannot isolate a DC component, if present.
