System Attenuation : 10×±2%
System Input Resistance : 10 M (Ω) // 12 pF
Compensation Range : 13 pF to 23 pF
Cable Length : 1.2 meters, Connector type BNC
Max. non-destructive input voltage : 600 V (DC + Peak AC) (see derating curve)
Probe Sense : Yes

Probe Adjustment
LF Adjustment
LF compensation is made by connecting the probe to the cal signal and adjusting the
compensation trimmer in the BNC-box at end of the probe. Connect the BNC end of the
probe to a channel of the oscilloscope. Connect the sprung hook end (1) and the ground lead
(2) to the CAL out and GND on the scope Calibrator area. The CAL signal is available in
many speeds. Select the Utilities in the scope to set the CAL to 1 kHz. Turn the scope
channel on. Press Auto Setup and adjust the time base and volts/div settings until the signal
on the screen contains two cycles (see figures below). Use the Trimmer tool (6) to adjust the
probe response to match the correct trim shown below.
[Note] Do not apply excess pressure to the screwdriver when you use it. The tip of
screwdriver are is easy to brake, because of made by plastics.

Installation for Safe and Efficient Operation
Operating Environment
Before using the Probe, ensure that its operating environment will be maintained within these
parameters :
Operation : In-door Use
Temperature : 5 to 40 oC or 41 to 104 oF
Humidity : < 80 % RH (non-condensing)
The Probe has been designed to comply with EN61010-1 Installation (Overvoltage) Category
II, 600 V, Pollution Degree 2.
Safety Symbols
Wherever the following safety symbols appear on the Probe or in the instruction manual, they
alert the user to an aspect of safety.
Symbol Meaning
Refer to accompanying documents (for Safety-related
information).
Risk of electric shock.
Calls attention to a procedure, practice or condition that
could possibly cause damage to equipment.
CAUTION
Calls attention to a procedure, practice or condition that
could possibly cause bodily injury or death.
WARNING
Usage
The probe is intended to be used only with instruments which are connected to earth ground
through the input BNC connector. Connect the grounding terminal of the probe to the ground
potential of a device to be measured.
WARNING Do not disconnect the probe while it is connected to a voltage source.
Do not directly touch a measuring point. Do not use the probe in wet or
explosive atmospheres.
WARNING Probe tips are sharp, misuse can result in injury. Use with care.
The use of the probe and/or the instrument it is connected to in a
manner other than specified may impair the safety mechanisms.
CAUTION To guarantee accurate performance characteristics, mechanical shocks
should be avoided, as well as damage to the cable through excessive
bending. Do not exceed the maximum specified signal voltage levels
(See Specifications).
Cleaning and Maintenance
The exterior of the probe and cable should only be cleaned using a soft cloth moistened with
water or isopropyl alcohol. The use of abrasive agents, strong detergents, or other solvents
may damage the probe. Assure that the input receptacles are free of debris before inserting
connection accessories.
All repair and maintenance should be referred to qualified service personnel. Do not use the
probe if any part is damaged.
