Getting Started
Introduction
Before you can use the probe, you must connect one of the available probe heads
to an 1130/1/2/4B probe amplifier.

Probe Heads
The available probe heads are shown in Figure 2 on page 9 and are documented in
Chapter 2 , “Using Probe Heads". The InfiniiMax I probe heads are designed
specifically for the 1130/1/2/4B probes amplifiers. The InfiniiMax II probe heads
are designed for 1168/9B probe amplifiers, but can also be used with the
1130/1/2/4B probe amplifiers.
The probe heads can be ordered at the same time as 1130/1/2/4B probe
amplifiers. The E2669B and E2668B connectivity kits, described on page 21 and
page 20 conveniently package multiple probe heads and their accessories.
Differential probe heads offer easy measurement of differential signals and greatly
improve the measurement of single-ended signals. Single-ended probe heads
offer extremely small size for probing single-ended signals in confined spaces.
Compatible Oscilloscopes
Table 1 on page 10 lists the oscilloscopes that are compatible with the
1130/1/2/4B probes. Is Your Oscilloscope Software Up-to-Date? Keysight
periodically releases Oscilloscope software updates to support your probe, fix
known defects, and incorporate product enhancements. To download the latest
firmware, go to www.keysight.com and search for your oscilloscope’s topic. Click
on the “Drivers, Firmware & Software” tab.
