Introduction

Teledyne LeCroy PP017 and PP018 are passive high impedance voltage

oscilloscope probes designed and calibrated for use with general purpose

oscilloscopes having an input impedance of 1 MΩ shunted by 16 pF.

However, they may be compensated for use with instruments having an

input capacitance between 10 and 30 pF. They are compatible with

oscilloscopes that automatically detect probe attenuation and adjust their

readout accordingly.

To avoid electric shock, keep fingers behind the probe’s finger

guard during use.

Rated for indoor use only. Do not operate where conductive

pollutants may be present.

Definitions:

Measurement Category II (CAT II) refers to measurements performed on circuits directly connected to

utilization points (socket outlets and similar) of the low-voltage mains installation.

Pollution Degree 2 refers to an operation environment where normally only dry non-conductive

pollution occurs. Temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.

General Safety Information

Observe generally accepted safety procedures in addition to those

listed here to avoid personal injury or damage to equipment. The

overall safety of any system incorporating this accessory is the

responsibility of the assembler of the system.

Connect only to grounded instruments. Use only with compatible Teledyne

LeCroy oscilloscopes that have their BNC input connected to an earth

ground. Do not connect the probe reference lead to any point which is at a

potential other than earth ground.

Connect and disconnect properly. Connect probe to the oscilloscope before

connecting it to the test circuit. Disconnect the probe input and reference

lead from the test circuit before disconnecting from the oscilloscope. Do

not connect/disconnect probes while connected to a voltage source.

Do not overload. Do not apply any potential to the probe leads that exceeds

the maximum rating of the probe. Observe all terminal ratings on the

oscilloscope before connecting. Consult the oscilloscope product manual

for further ratings information.

Always comply with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve.

Do not remove probe casing. Touching exposed connections may result in

electric shock.

Use indoors only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or

explosive atmospheres. Keep product surfaces clean and dry.

Handle with care. Probe tips are extremely sharp and may puncture skin or

cause other bodily injury if not handled properly.

Keep fingers behind the finger guard of probe body and accessories.

PP017/PP018 Passive Probe

6 EAR99 technology subject to restrictions on copyrights page.

Do not operate with suspected failures. Before each use, inspect the probe

and accessories for any potential damage such as tears or other defects in

the probe body, cable jacket, accessories, etc. If any part is damaged, cease

operation immediately and sequester the probe from inadvertent use.

Cleaning

•Clean only the exterior of the probe, cables, and accessories. Use a

soft cotton cloth moistened with a mild detergent and water solution.

Do not allow any portion of the probe to be submerged at any time.

•Dry the probe and accessory thoroughly before attempting to make

any voltage measurement.

•Do not subject the probe to solvents or solvent fumes as these can

cause deterioration of the probe body, cables, and accessories.

Service

Refer all repairs to qualified service personnel. Contact Teledyne LeCroy at

Probe Compensation

Proper compensation of the probe is required to assure amplitude accuracy

of the waveform being measured by matching the probe to the

oscilloscope’s input capacitance. Compensation should be adjusted

whenever the probe is connected to or transferred between oscilloscopes.

Low Frequency (LF)

1. Apply a 1 kHz square wave to the probe or connect to the

oscilloscope’s calibrator output.

2. Adjust the LF trimmer (left) until you achieve a flat-topped square

wave as in the center of the bottom illustration.

High Frequency (HF)

High frequency should rarely require adjustment. However, if adjustment is

required:

1. Apply a 1 MHz square wave to the probe (< 0.7 ns rise-time).

2. Adjust the HF trimmer (right) on the PP017 probe body, or first the

HF2 then the HF1 trimmers on the PP018 BNC Compensation Box,

until you achieve a flat-topped, square wave as in the center of the

bottom illustration.
