If necessary, use a nonmetallic screwdriver to adjust the variable capacity of your probe until
the shape of the waveform turns to be the same as the above figure. Repeat this step as
necessary. See the figure below for the way of adjustment.
3.5 Probe Attenuation Setting
Probes are of various attenuation factors which affect the vertical scale of the signal. The Probe
Check function is used to verify if the Probe attenuation option matches the attenuation of the
probe.
As an alternative method to Probe Check, you can push a vertical menu button (such as the CH 1
MENU button) and select the Probe option that matches the attenuation factor of your probe.
Make sure that the Attenuation switch on the probe matches the Probe option in the oscilloscope.
Switch settings are 1X and 10X.
When the Attenuation switch is set to 1X, the probe limits the bandwidth of the oscilloscope to
6MHz. To use the full bandwidth of the oscilloscope, be sure to set the switch to 10X.
