TCP303 and TCP404XL Adjustments

Adjustment Locations

The location of the probe adjustments is shown below. (See Figure 17.)

Figure 17: TCP303 and TCP404XL adjustment locations

TCP303

and TCP404XL Transient Response and Coarse Gain Adjustment

These procedures describe how to adjust and optimize the transient response and

coarse gain adjustment of the TCP303 and TCP404XL probes, using the 1 ms,

10 ms

, and DC gain adjustments. The current source and current loop setups are

different between the two probes, but the connections are similar. The equipment

connections are shown. (See Figure 18 on page 54.)
