Attenuation Switch
Note:
When
the attenuation switch is set to 1X, the T5100 probe will limit the
bandwidth of the oscilloscope in 5MHz. If it is needed to use the whole bandwidth
of the oscilloscope, the switch must be set to 10X.
How to Use the Probe Safely
The safety guard ring around the probe body protects your finger against the electric
shock, shown as Fig. 8.

Finger Guard
Warning:
In order to avoid suffering from the electric shock, please keep your
finger behind the safety guard ring of the probe body during the operation.
In order to protect you from suffering from the electric shock during your using the
probe, do not touch the metal part of the probe tip when the probe is connected to
the power supply.
Before making any measurements, please connect the probe to the instrument and
connect the ground terminal to the earth.
How to Implement Auto-calibration
The auto-calibration application can make the oscilloscope reach the optimum
condition rapidly to obtain the most accurate measurement value. You can carry out
this application program at any time, but when the range of variation of the ambient
temperature is up to or over 5
℃
, this program must be executed.
For the performing of the self-calibration, all probes or wires should be disconnected
with the input connector first. Then, press the
“8(UTILITY)”
button to call out the
FUNCTION
menu; push down the F3 menu selection button to choose the option
