When setting up the logic probe, the first set of eight leads (pins 7 to 0) on the logic probe are marked GROUP 1 on the
lead box. The second set (pins 15 to 8) is marked GROUP 2.
Theleadforthefirst channel in each g roup is colored blue for easy identification while you connect the logic probe to the
