You may replace items 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, 16, and 22 with a Wavetek 9100 (with options 100 and 600) for 500 MHz oscillo-
scopes, or a Wavetek 9500 (with option 100) and output head appropriate for the bandwidth of the oscilloscope(s) being
tested. For 3 GHz oscilloscopes use a Wavetek 9530 head.
2
P6139A probe is not appropriate for the TDS694C/794D oscilloscopes.
3
Requires a TM 500 or TM 5000 Series Power Module Mainframe. For Delta Time Measurement Accuracy use a
Wavetek 9500 or a pulse generator with a rise time as shown in Table 1–6 on page 1–58.

Warning: The P6243 and P6245 probes that may be used with this oscilloscope provide an extremely low loading
capacitance (<1 pF) to ensure the best possible signal reproduction. These probes should not be used to measure
signals exceeding ±8 V, or errors in signal measurement will be observed. Above 40 V, damage to the probe may result.
To make measurements beyond ±8 V, use either the P6139A probe (good to 500 V), or refer to the catalog for a recom-
mended probe. P6139A is not an appropriate probe for the TDS 694C or TDS 794D oscilloscopes.

If available, you may replace items 14, 15, and 16 with the following set of equipment for bandwidths up to 1 GHz:
a Tegam/Tektronix SG503 and SG504 with SG504 leveling head.
