User Calibrations
The following calibrations can be performed by the user:
• Plug-in Module Vertical Calibration
• Probe Calibration
• Channel Skew
• External Scale
CAUTION
The input circuits can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Avoid
applying static discharges to the front panel input connectors. Before
connecting a coaxial cable to the connectors, momentarily short the center
and outer connectors of the cable together. Avoid touching the front panel
input connectors without first touching the frame of the instrument. Be sure
the instrument is properly earth-grounded to prevent buildup of static charge.
An antistatic mat and wristband are strongly recommended, particularly when
working with TDR modules.
