To set up and configure the PA200 prober for use with the 4200A-SCS, you will:
• Set up communications (on page G-6)
• Set up wafer geometry (on page G-10)
• Create a site definition and define a probe list (on page G-13)
• Load, align, and contact the wafer (on page G-14)

You need to set communications between the 4200A-SCS and the prober.
To make the connections:
1. Connect the ProberBench NT computer’s COM2 port to the 4200A-SCS COM1 port using a DB9
female to DB9 female cable (shielded null modem cable). See the following figure.
