Probe Compensation
All oscilloscope probes should be properly compensated before their first use with the
oscilloscope. Non-compensated or inadequate compensated probe may cause
measurement inaccuracy or error. The probe compensation procedures are as follows.
1. Set the switch to 10X on the probe.
2. Perform steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of ―Function Inspection‖ in the previous section.
3. Check the waveforms displayed and compare them with the following:
Over Perfectly Under
Compensated Compensated Compensated
4. Use a nonmetallic flat-head screwdriver to adjust the low-frequency compensation
adjustment hole on the probe until the waveform matches the ―Perfectly Compensated‖
waveform above.
