AC
• 40 MHz bandwidth
• Voltage dividing of 1000:1
• Frequency compensation
2 Using the Probe
1. Connect the probe to the BNC
input of the oscilloscope.
2. Select the desired volts/division
range on your oscilloscope.
3. If possible, always turn the high
voltage source off before
connecting or disconnecting the
probe.
4. Connect the divider probe
ground lead (alligator clip) to a
good earth ground or reliable
chassis ground.
5. Before turning on the high
voltage source, be certain the
operator is not touching any
part of the device under test.
