Installation
3. Connect the probe connector to
oscilloscope channel 1 and the probe tip
and reference
lead to the PROBE COMP
terminals on the oscilloscope front panel.
4. Push Default Setup.
5. Push Autoset. The screen should now
display a square wave, approximately
2.5 V at 1 kHz.
If the signal appears but is misshapen,
perform the procedures for compensating
the probe. (See page 15, Compensating
a non-TPP0500B or non-TPP1000
Passive Voltage Probe.)
If no signal appears, rerun the procedure.
If this does not remedy the situation,
have the instrument serviced by qualified
service personnel.
Compensating a TPP0500B or TPP1000 Passive Voltage Probe
The MSO4000B and DPO4000B can automatically compensate TPP0500B and TPP1000 probes. This eliminates the need
for manual probe compensation, as is typically performed with other probes.
Each compensation generates values for a specific probe and channel combination. If you want to use the probe on another
channel and desire to compensate the new probe-channel pair, you must run a new set of compensation steps for that new
comb
ination.
1. Connect the oscilloscope power cable as
des
cribed in (See page 11, Powering on the
Oscilloscope.).
2. Power on the oscilloscope.
