Some oscillo
scopes might re quire a firmware upgrade to support full functionality
of the P7700 Series probes. Instruments with lower versions of firmware might
not display all probe controls and indicators on screen, and in some cases require
you to power-cycle the instrument to restore normal instrument operation.
The following table lists the required versions of instrument firmware for some of
the oscilloscopes that currently support the P7700 Series probes.
