Introduction
6-52.
The
Model
81RF High
Frequency
Probe,
Figure
6-13,
extends
the
frequency
range
of the
8600A to include
100
kHz to
100
MHz for
ac voltage
measurements
from
0.25
to
30V rms.
The
8
1
RF
operates
in
conjunction
with
the
dc voltage
range,
and is
connected
to
the
8600A
using
a
shielded
dual-banana
plug and
an
adapter.

.
The
Model
80T-150
Temperature
Probe
is
a
self-
contained
temperature-to-voltage
converter. It
is
designed
to
provide
a direct
temperature
reading
on the
display of
any
high
impedance
voltmeter
(1MS2)
capable
of 1
mV
resolution,
and at
least
300
mV
full-scale
readout.
The
probe
can be
configured
to
provide
either
one of two
temperature
displays:
-50
to
+150°C
or
-58
to +300°F.
6-58.
Operating
power
for
the probe
is provided
by an
internal
lithium battery.
Typically,
the
battery
will provide
up to
1
000 hours of
continuous
operation
before, replace-
ment
is necessary.
An on/off
switch
is provided to
conserve
the battery
when not
in use.

1
. The Battery
Pack
provides
the
8600A with the
capability of
operating
as
a portable
(battery-operated)
in-
strument. Four
nickle
cadmium
(Ni-cad)
batteries
allow,
typically
8 hours of
portable
operation
before
recharging
is necessary.
The
batteries
are
recharged
by
connecting
the
8600A to
the ac
power
line. If
desired,
the
8600A
can be
operated
during
the
charging
process,
however,
the
charging
time will
be
increased.
d.
Select
the
desired voltage
range.
e.
Connect
the
probe’s ground
lead to
a suitable
ground.
f.
Touch
the
probe
tip
to the
circuit
point to
be
measured.
g.
Observe
the
voltage reading
displayed
in volts
rms
on
the
8600A readout.

CAUTION!
Damage may
result if alkaline,
zinc-carbon,
or
