Using Othe
rProbes
Optional probes can add capabilities to your oscilloscope that are useful in many
applications. You can use the following passive probes without any limitations.

Supported Active Probes and Adapters
The oscilloscope supplies power to active probes. You can use the following
active probes as long as the total power required by the probes does not exceed
the capacity of the oscilloscope. To determine the total probe load, add the load
fac
tors for all probes you want to use. The oscilloscope can supply power to this
combination if the sum of the load factors equals 10 or less. All passive probes
have a load factor of zero.
