Test the other channels in the same way. If you see the waveform, but the square
wave is not shaped correctly as shown above, perform the procedure described in
. If you do not see the waveform, perform the inspection
again.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock when using the probe, please make sure that the insulated wire of
the probe is in good condition. Do not touch the metallic part of the probe when the
probe is connected to high voltage source.

Probe Compensation
When used for the first time, the oscilloscope probe must be compensated to match
the input characteristics of the oscilloscope channel to which it is connected. A non-
compensated or poorly compensated probes can introduce measurement inaccuracy
or errors. The compensation procedure is as follows:
1.
Perform step 1, 2, 3, and 4 in
2.
Check the displayed waveforms and compare them with waveforms shown in the
figure below.

Use the probe compensation adjustment tool provided in the accessories to adjust
the low-frequency compensation adjustment hole on the probe until the displayed
