Bandwidth and attenuation values are indicated on the probe control box. The "Offset"
is the differential offset, see "Offset" on page 121.
R&S RT-ZHD high-voltage differential probes have the Rohde & Schwarz probe inter-
face and support its functions. For details, see Chapter 6.4.3.1, "Settings for the
Rohde & Schwarz probe interface", on page 130.
Specific settings for R&S RT-ZHD probes are the following:
Bandwidth limit
Activates the lowpass filter in the probe control box. The filter frequency depends on
the probe type and is indicated on the probe control box.
You can set the filter on the probe control box or at the oscilloscope.
Remote command:
PROBe<ch>:SETup:ADVanced:FILTer on page 530
Range
Sets the voltage range of an R&S RT-ZHD probe. You can set the range on the probe
control box or at the oscilloscope.
"Auto"
The voltage range is set only at the oscilloscope with "Vertical scale".
"Low"
Sets the lower voltage range of the connected probe. The range val-
ues depend on the probe type and are indicated on the probe control
box.
"High"
Sets the higher voltage range of the connected probe. The range val-
ues depend on the probe type and are indicated on the probe control
box.
Remote command:
PROBe<ch>:SETup:ADVanced:RANGe on page 531
Audible overrange
Activates the acoustic overrange warning in the probe control box. You can also acti-
vate the sound directly on the probe control box.

6.4.4 Setup for current probes
The setup and adjustment of current probes depends on the output connector of the
probe: BNC or Rohde & Schwarz probe box.
Current probes R&S RT-ZCxx
The current probes R&S RT-ZCxx have BNC connectors. They are known to the
MXO 4 as predefined probes, see "Predefined probe, name and type of the probe"
on page 126. Demagnetizing and zero adjustment is done on the probe, see the pro-
be's User Manual for details. Make sure to demagnetize and adjust the probe before
taking measurements.
