3. Conne
ct the probe inputs together with the hook tips.
4. Press
AutoZero on the Probe Setup screen to initiate the AutoZero routine.
If th
e AutoZero routine does not yield sufficient results, use the DC Offset Zero procedure below.
DC Offset Zero
The offset stored through this feature is retained in the probe between probe power cycles. To set the probe DC offset to
0 V, do the following:
1. Set the oscilloscope offset for the probe channel to 0 volts.
2. Connect the probe inputs together with the hook tips.
3. Press and hold the probe BANDWIDTH LIMIT and RANGE buttons until the OVERRANGE LED on the probe begins
flashing, and then quickly release the buttons (about 2 seconds).
