 3 

Introduction 

The PP010 is a passive probe to be used with a LeCroy WaveJet oscilloscope 
having an input impedance of 1 M

. It has an attenuation ratio of 10:1. 

Safety Information 

This symbol appears on the product: 

 

It refers you to additional information contained in this manual. The 
corresponding information in the manual is similarly denoted. 
To avoid personal injury and to prevent fire or damage to the probe or any 
products connected to it, review and comply with the following safety 
precautions. 

 WARNING -- ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD 
Do not remove the probe case.

 Removal of the probe case may expose 

you to electric shock. 

Do not disassemble the probe. 

Disassembling the probe may expose 

you to electric shock. 

Do not disconnect the probe from the scope during measurement.

 

Disconnecting the probe during measurement may expose you to 
electric. 
Connect the probes grounding terminal to the ground potential of the 
device under test. Failure to connect to ground potential may expose you 
to electric shock. 

Connect to properly grounded instruments

. This probe is to be used only 

with test instruments having input connectors with the BNC shield (ring) 
connected to earth ground. 

Connect the probe properly: 

Connect the probe to the measurement 

instrument before connecting the probe to test circuit. Do not disconnect the 
probe from the test instrument while the input is connected to the test circuit. 
Do not connect the probe ground terminal to any point in the test circuit that is 
at a potential other than earth ground. 

 

Do not apply to the input any potential that exceeds the maximum 

ratings of the probe.

 Refer to specifications. 

Do not use in wet or explosive atmospheres. 
For indoor use only.

 This probe is intended for indoor use and should be 

operated in a clean, dry environment.
