SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Warning:
Use extreme caution in the use of this de-
vice. Improper use of this device can result in injury or
death. Follow all the safeguards suggested in this own-
er’s manual in addition to normal safety precautions in
dealing with electrical circuits. Do not use this device if
you are unfamiliar with electrical circuits and testing
procedures.
Not for commercial or industrial use
.
This oscilloscope is designed to ensure the safest op-
eration possible. However, safe operation depends on
you, the operator. Make sure you follow these simple
safety rules:
Read all of these instructions carefully, and save
them for your reference.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on
the ProbeScope.
When making voltage measurements, never
touch the ProbeScope’s tip or a hot wire in AC
wiring circuits. If you do, you could receive an
electric shock.
Never apply the ProbeScope to a source of power
greater than 100V DC/AC peak-to-peak. Doing so
could cause electrical shock or damage to the
ProbeScope.
Caution
: If you do not know the level of the volt-
age to measure in manual range control, always
start at the highest range: 100V DC or AC.
Never try to measure any voltage more than 30
VAC on a DC source bias. Doing so might dam-
age your ProbeScope.
