Installation
3. Connect the probe connector to
oscilloscope channel 1 and the probe tip
and reference
lead to the PROBE COMP
terminals on the oscilloscope front panel.
4. Push Default Setup.
5. Push Autoset. The screen should now
display a square wave, approximately
2.5 V at 1 kHz.
If the signal appears but is misshapen,
perform the procedures for compensating
the probe.
If no signal appears, rerun the procedure.
If this does not remedy the situation,
have the instrument serviced by qualified
service personnel.
Compensating a TPP0250, TPP0500B or TPP1000 Passive Voltage Probe
The MDO3000 Series oscilloscopes can automatically compensate TPP0250, TPP0500B and TPP1000 probes. This
eliminates the need for manual probe compensation, as is typically performed with other probes.
Each compensation generates values for a specific probe and channel combination. If you want to use the probe on another
channel and desire to compensate the new probe-channel pair, you must run a new set of compensation steps for that new
comb
ination.
1. Connect the oscilloscope power cable. (See
page
9, Powering on the Oscilloscope.)
2. Power on the oscilloscope.
