1. Disconnect
any probes or cables from the channel input connectors.
2. Push the Utility button.
3. Push the System screen button to select Cal.
4. Push the Signal Path screen button.
5. Push OK Compensate Signal Path. This procedure takes several minutes
to complete.
NOTE. The signal path compensation does not include calibration to the probe tip.
