Preliminary Procedure
1. Connect the ZD Series probe to the female end of the ProBus Extension Cable.
Connect the male end of the ProBus Extension Cable to channel 1 of the
oscilloscope.
2. Turn the oscilloscope on and allow at least 30 minutes warm-up time for the ZD
Series and test equipment before performing the Verification Procedure.
3. Turn on the other test equipment and allow them to warm up for the
manufacturer’s recommended timeframe.
4. While the instruments are reaching operating temperature, make a photocopy of
the Performance Verification Test Record (located in Appendix A), and fill in the
necessary data.
5. Select the channel to which the probe is connected. Set the oscilloscope scale
factor to 20 mV/div.
6. Disconnect the ProBus Extender Cable from the oscilloscope. Verify that the scale
factor changes from 20 mV/div to 2 mV/div.
7. Reconnect the ProBus extender Cable to the oscilloscope.
The warranted characteristics of the ZD Series are valid at any temperature within the
Environmental Characteristics listed in the Specifications. However, some of the other test
equipment used to verify the performance may have environmental limitations required to
meet the accuracy needed for the procedure. Be sure that the ambient conditions meet the
requirements of all the test instruments used in this procedure.
Note: The correct operation of the ZD Series controls requires software version
6.4.1.x or higher. The software version in the test oscilloscope can be verified by
selecting Utilities, Utilities Setup... from the menu bar, then the Status tab.
Contact your local LeCroy representative or visit www.lecroy.com if the software in
your oscilloscope requires updating.
