5.5.5 Modular probes
The probes of the R&S RT-ZM family are modular probes. They have a probe head
and a probe amplifier connected by a cable, and various probe tip modules and tip
cables for different applications. R&S RT-ZM probes are equipped with
Rohde & Schwarz probe interface, and provide special features: ProbeMeter, micro
button, and a wide offset compensation range.
If you connect the R&S RT-ZM probe to the external trigger input, you can adjust only
the trigger level and the probe mode. The instrument sets the trigger level to the probe
offset value (DM, CM, P or N, depending on the probe mode).
The following shared probe settings are available:
●
"Type, Name, Bandwidth" on page 195
