older
The TPH1000 probe holder allows you
to make a hands-free connection when
using the hand
held probes included in the
accessory kit. T he probe holder can also be
used with many other Tektronix probes.
You have two op
tions for taking hands-free
differential measurements:
You can use the handheld probes with
two TPH1000 probe holders (required if
the test poin
ts are >1 inch apart).
For test poi
nts <1 inch apart, use the
handheld probes with the THV-Browser
(shown on the following page).
To use the probe holder, do the following:
1. Insert the probe into one of the holder
openings so that the Tektronix logo faces
the circu
it under test.
2. Slide the
probe forward to secure it.
CAUTION. To avoid personal injury, always
insert and remove probes by gripping the
handhel
d section of the probe.
3. Positio
n the base of the probe holder on
your circuit where it can maintain stability
while contacting the test point.
WARNIN
G. Do not use the probe holder
without the rubber feet; internal metal would
be exposed which presents a shock hazard.
The weight of the probe holder keeps the
probe
in place.
CAUTION. If you are probing circuitry
with
dense contacts such as IC pins,
Tektronix recommends that you use insulated
probe tip accessories designed to prevent
sho
rt-circuiting adjacent IC pins or circuitry.
One TPH1000 probe holder is included with
the probes.
