Inspecting the Probe
- Inspect the shipping container for damage.
- Keep the damaged shipping container or cushioning material until the contents of the
shipment have been checked for completeness and the probe has been checked
mechanically and electrically.
- Check the accessories. If the contents are incomplete or damaged, notify your Keysight
Technologies Sales Office.
- Inspect the probe. If there is mechanical damage or defect, or if the probe does not
operate properly or pass calibration tests, notify your Keysight Technologies Sales
Office.
- If the shipping container is damaged, or the cushioning materials show signs of stress,
notify the carrier as well as your Keysight Technologies Sales Office. Keep the shipping
materials for the carrier’s inspection. The Keysight Technologies office will arrange for
repair or replacement at Keysight Technologies’ option without waiting for claim
settlement.
Cleaning the Probe
If the probe requires cleaning, disconnect it from the oscilloscope and gently clean the
external surface of the probe with a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water
solution.
Cleaning the Sensor Head
The presence of foreign substances such as dust on the mating surfaces of the probe’s
sensor head can cause acoustic resonance and degraded measurements, Therefore, keep
these mating surfaces clean by gently wiping with a soft cloth.
WARNING
Do not try to clean the unit using cleaners containing organic solvents such as
benzine, alcohol, acetone, ether, ketones, thinners, or gasoline. These may cause
discoloration or damage.
Make sure the probe is completely dry before reconnecting it to the oscilloscope.
