Setting up and Using DP0010A/12A/13A Probes
Connecting the Probe to an Oscilloscope
1
Connect the probe to an input channel of a compatible Keysight oscilloscope
by gently pushing the probe onto the connector on the oscilloscope’s input
channel. As the probe is pushed, the lever on top of the probe moves to the left.
When the probe is fully seated, the lever returns to the locked position.
Using Channel Identification Rings
When multiple probes are connected to the
oscilloscope, you can quickly identify which probe is
connected to each oscilloscope channel by using
the supplied channel identification rings.
Place rings of the same color on each end of the
probe’s cable.
Using these rings ensures that you can pick up a
probe and immediately know which channel it is connected to without having to
track the cable back to the oscilloscope’s channel input.
NOTE
These probes are designed for ground-referenced measurements. Connect the
probe to the oscilloscope input before performing any measurements.
