Select Probe Attenuation Level
Background
A signal probe has an attenuation switch to lower
the original DUT signal level to the oscilloscope
input range, if necessary. The probe attenuation
selection adjusts the vertical scale so that the
voltage level on the display reflects the real value
on a DUT.
Panel Operation
1. Press the Channel key.
CH1
2. Press Probe from the bottom menu.
3. Press Attenuation on the side menu
and use the variable knob to set the
attenuation.
Alternatively, press Set to 10X.
Range
1mX ~1kX (1-2-5 step)
Note
The attenuation factor adds no influence on the
real signal. It just changes the voltage/current
scale on the display.
