Probe Pin Replacement
This paragraph describes how to replace the probe pin.
1. Unscrew the probe pin slowly using the probe tip nut driver (PN 8710-1806;
furnished with the 41800A).
2. Screw in the new pin with the driver.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the 41800A 's highly sensitive
input amplifier. Wear a snug-fitting ground strap to touch the probe pin.
Do not touch the probe pin directly.
The 30 mil probe pin must be used to adapt to the Keysight probe-BNC(m)
adapter, the 10:1/100:1 dividers, the slip-on spanner ground tip, the hook
tip adapter, or the Keysight probe-N(m) adapter.
A spare probe pin set (PN 41800-60021), includes 12 mil pins (3 ea.) and
30 mil pins (3 ea.), is available from your nearest Keysight Technologies
office.
