Getting Started
Input a Waveform
The first signal to input to the oscilloscope is the Demo 2, Probe Comp
signal. This signal is used for compensating probes.
1 Connect an oscilloscope probe from channel 1 to the Demo 2 (Probe
Comp) terminal on the front panel.
2
Connect the probe's ground lead to the ground terminal (next to the
Demo 2
terminal).

Maximum input voltage at analog inputs
CAT I 300 Vrms, 400 Vpk; transient overvoltage 1.6 kVpk
50
Ω
input: 5 Vrms Input protection is enabled in 50
Ω
mode and the 50
Ω
load will
disconnect if greater than 5 Vrms is detected. However the inputs could still be
damaged, depending on the time constant of the signal. The 50
Ω
input protection only
functions when the oscilloscope is powered on.
With 10073C 10:1 probe: CAT I 500 Vpk, CAT II 400 Vpk
With N2871A, N2872A, N2873A 10:1 probe: CAT I 400 Vpk, transient overvoltage
1.25 kVpk, CAT II 300 Vpk

Do not float the oscilloscope chassis
Defeating the ground connection and "floating" the oscilloscope chassis will probably
result in inaccurate measurements and may also cause equipment damage. The probe
ground lead is connected to the oscilloscope chassis and the ground wire in the power
cord. If you need to measure between two live points, use a differential probe with
sufficient dynamic range.
WA R N I N G
Do not negate the protective action of the ground connection to the oscilloscope. The
oscilloscope must remain grounded through its power cord. Defeating the ground
creates an electric shock hazard.
