Using the Probe
16
Demagnetization and Zero Adjustment
1 Allow both the Infiniium oscilloscope and the probe to warm up for 
at least 30 minutes before making these adjustments.
2 Ensure that the channel offset is set to 0V on the oscilloscope 
channel to which the probe is connected.
3 Ensure that the probe sensor is NOT clamped around any 
conductors.
4 Slide the probe sensor Opening Lever into the Locked position. 
Refer to Figure 4 on page 14 for the location of the lever.
5 Press the DEMAG button on the terminator. A demagnetization 
waveform will be displayed for a short time on the channel to 
which the probe is connected. Wait until this waveform is no 
longer displayed.
6 When the demagnetization waveform is no longer displayed, 
adjust the ZERO ADJ control on the probe terminator to move the 
trace for the channel to which the probe is connected as close as 
possible to the 0V position. If the ZERO ADJ control cannot center 
the trace adequately, then do the following:
a
Move the ZERO ADJ control to a midrange position.
b Carefully adjust the Coarse Adjustment Trimmer on 
the probe sensor to move the trace on the channel to 
which the probe is connected as close as possible to 
the 0V position.
c Adjust the ZERO ADJ control on the probe terminator 
to move the trace for the channel to which the probe 
is connected as close as possible to the 0V position.
