This setting will be valid all the time before it is changed again.
Caution:
The default attenuation coefficient of the probe on the instrument is preset to
10X.
Make sure that the set value of the attenuation switch in the probe is the
same as the menu selection of the probe attenuation coefficient
in the
oscilloscope.
The set values of the probe switch are 1X and 10X (see Figure 3-9).
Figure 3-9 Attenuation Switch
Caution:
When the attenuation switch is set to 1X, the probe will limit the bandwidth
of the oscilloscope in 5MHz. To use the full bandwidth of the oscilloscope,
the switch must be set to 10X.
How to Use the Probe Safely
The safety guard ring around the probe body protects your finger against any electric
