Wavetek 9500/Option 100 and output head appropriate for the bandwidth of the oscilloscope under test (9520, 9530, 9560).
Warning: This generator can output dangerous voltages. Set the generator to Off or 0 volts before connecting, discon-
necting, or changing any test hookup during all procedures to follow. Also read the Warning statement on page 2- 24.

For Delta Time Measurement Accuracy, use a Wavetek 9500 or a pulse generator with a rise time as shown in Table 2- 4
on page 2- 45.

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 m easure
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 P5050 probe (good to 500 V), or refer to the catalog for a recom-
mended probe.
