Shock hazard caused by high voltages
Make sure to set the attenuation factor on the instrument according to the
probe being used. Otherwise, the measurement results do not reflect the
actual voltage level, and you might misjudge the actual risk.
1. Connect the probe(s) first to the channel input(s) at the top of the instrument,
and then to the DUT.
2.
Press and hold the CH key of the used input.
3. Select "Probe Setting".
4. Select the attenuation factor of the probe.
The probe's attenuation factor is indicated on the probe.
Note: If you perform current measurements using a shunt resistor as a current
sensor, you have to multiply the V/A-value of the resistor by the attenuation of
